Default Dremel model 414 1/2" diameter felt polishing wheel

I used a Dremel model 414 1/2 inch diameter (12.7mm) felt polishing wheel dry with no polishing compound. It uses the #401 mandrel with the corkscrew looking tip.

I tried the electric starter again last night and worked fine.

I believe that polishing the bendix end cap bore on the side cover did the trick for my bike, in addition to the larger battery cables and grounds. I am still using a relatively small capacity 150 CCA battery, but I am sure that a larger capacity battery like the 240 CCA Antigravity AG-YTZ7-8 would work better and might even start my bike in gear.

Wishing all happy starting and happy trails...... Cheers, Steve
