Genuine Yamaha Fz15 - Fz16 Starter Clutch Pinion

The Bendix pinion's function is to connect the starter motor to the main engine to initiate the motorcycle's ignition. When the motorcycle is started, the pinion engages the flywheel and rotates it. When the engine is started, the pinion automatically disengages to prevent the starter motor from continuing to operate. This component protects both the starter motor and the main engine, ensuring efficient and smooth starting. The pinion should be well lubricated and checked regularly to prevent ignition system failures, ensuring you're always ready to explore the unknown.
