I've  had my Gowesty starter for two years plus for 22,000 miles starter does not work now. Is this typical of this type a starter? For a while I noticed that the brushes get stuck then I'll tap the starter and it would turn over, now that wont work anymore. 12.5 volts a starter. Connections are clean + light application of dielectric grease. Is there a better starter out there? Gowesty wants $299 for a new one. I have no idea as far as a warranty. Will call them tomorrow.
 My Westy is running great except now for the starter.
