My starter is bad so I ordered a new on. Where it is located it looked, at least from the top, to be an easy fix. I took the front off and now it doesn't look quite as easy. Would I just take out the dynamo to make room? That piece blocking it is bolted on in 6 places, two of which are behind the frame.

Wise acre answer... Unbolt it. :ROFLMAO:

Two nuts and bolts hold the starter in, take those off and, once unbolted you should be able to pull the back side of the starter up and out.

I know how to unbolt it :rolleyes: The issue is that it seems way longer than the space available to pull it out. I figured someone here may have taken one out and had a tip or trick or even just a "It'll come out in the space available." I guess I will see.

Only the first line was being a class clown,
The rest was solid advice, sorry you didn't get that.
If it won't spin up then yes just pull the dynamo out of the way.
