cNw Electric start

Has anyone got any experience of the cNw electric start we see advertised in Roadholder? I was considering an Alton, but the cNw incorporates a belt drive, which is an advantage to me, and I would need to bin my 3 phase alternator if I went for an Alton.

Can't comment on the CnW electric start but have bought a quite few parts from CnW and have to say the quality is 1st Class...everything fits perfectly. Watch out for the import tax.

now had mine on 850 two years, Fantastic bit of kit comes with all seals nuts & washers needed. 

Just bolted on with no hacking or sawing like the other make  (purchased and returned for refund)

I also fitted barnett clutch plate set and a shorai battery. lots of money but in my view worth every penny.

Thanks for your replies John and Mick. Both positive for cNw so I think that's the way I'll be going.

And thanks for the heads-up on the import duty - that's going to hurt a bit!

Cheers,

Dave

holland norton works may be cheaper for the import duty 

Puzzled by the comment above. I fitted an Alton starter to my Mk2 850 and it didn't involve hacking or sawing, whereas I thought that the CNW did (air filter/battery area?). Everything that needed doing to fit the Alton was reversible without needing any replacement parts.
