Fireblade starter

I've just discovered that the starter I have for my blade RRP engine has a bent main shaft, do you think stripping it and straightening the shaft is possible?

Cheers

Anythings possible!.
Worth a try. Only £20 for a new one if it fails

I've had a look this evening, it's not the shaft - it's the cap, when you put it on the car the mounting holes don't line up because the bit that goes in the flywheel hole is off centre.

It's moot anyway, I tested it and it's got a massive short so it's scrap anyway!

Anone got a spare one?

Cheers
