Can anyone confirm which way the GG starter should spin. There are videos everywhere and pages and pages of text about changing polarity etc but I can't see an answer to the spin direction question.

I pulled mine apart and marked positions with a marker and while cleaning the inside I inadvertently wiped off the marks I had made on the outside... dummy! Now I'm trying to figure it out. I think the motor when inserted in position in the bike should spin the cog it sits in counter clockwise or another way of thinking about it if you were to take out the motor and look directly at the shaft it would be spinning clockwise .

Thanks

Just take a look at the flywheel when pushing down the kickstarter. Then you know which way it should spin (or rather you can figure it out from the number of gears between the starter and the flywheel)

After trial and error I can confirm that the starter shaft should spin counter clockwise if you are looking directly at the shaft.

Just did a bush replacement, cleaned starter components and new 8 gauge wiring (neg and positive and a direct earth to the starter) and for the first time in my ownership it starts within seconds (cold) with the e start with gusto vs a struggling sounds I used to get even when warm. Finally cracked it. Hopefully it stays that way
