KICKSTARTER EC 300 wanted

[5valve]

2008 model, but presume many years & models fit.

I hear that yamaha yz's fit also, so if more exact info exists on other makes-models, that fit, warmly welcome.

Should be in working order, minimal play.

Just finshed bike's pre sale polish, took it to a stroll, a few kicks, and snap.

I just bought a hammerhead for a yz250f and I'll try to get back to you about fitment. Haven't mocked it up yet.

I fitted a 2004 KTM 450 EXC Kick starter on mine works really well.

Funny thing, used GG kickers tend to be more expensive as new OEM.
Ktm a bit hard to get but good to know.
Yam 250f are 3 different models, steel frame 2005, alu frame 2009, latest gen. alu frame till now.

I tied the one from a steel frame 2000 YZ426F didn't fit.

In the first section on this forum ("General Forums") there is a "Technical Articles".

On the left column click parts crossover.

Tells you what parts cross over. It has the YZ and part number to use.

part number 5NX-15620-00

I just searched ebay for that part number and bought that one.

Same here. I got a shiny blue one!

Thanks for the info, already read all topics regarding kickstarters, none stating which yz250f starters work, except pre '05 - steel frame, which are not good lookers.

Got lucky today, borrowed WR250f 2015 kick, which corresponds to all 2010 - present YZFs.
Perfect fit, no grinding needed, excellent dropdown.

Tried 2 positions, both OK.

70-0221-00-60 Hammerhead kickstarter for a yz250f did not fit onto my splines easy enough. Maybe my splines are worn and this is the problem?

Has anyone else encountered this issue? It looks like the splines would line up, but they seem a slightly different shape or something.

So, seems like the kicker isn't my problem? Weird... I have an 02 EC300, but I thought the kickshaft splines were all the same.
