Before starting, it is strongly recommended to disconnect the battery to work safely. First, remove the air filter, the associated housing, and the related hoses.

Next, disconnect the connectors attached to the starter motor. At this point, simply undo and remove the bolts securing the motor.

Once the bolts are removed, you can slide the motor out of its housing and take it out. This completes the disassembly, allowing you to install a new starter motor or have the one you removed serviced.
