Also, to test it by applying 12volts where do i connect the negative terminal?, anywhere on the leg that attaches it to the engine? & the + goes on the only terminal? I tried that & it wont spin! Sorry for the dumbass questions but i am learning!

Used starters are fairly cheap, whether they are any good or not is the question.
It's inside the nose of the starter and you have to take it apart to fix it. There are starter rebuild parts available also, but first you have to get it apart.

I've seen this kit on ebay & the brushes are totally different, how do i install the 2 smaller brushes? When its all apart i'd better just do it all. The 'x' screws that hold the brushes to the outer body have been painted over too & i havent managed to get them out yet, any tips?

& the pic in this advert are the same.
..........the reason i went for the 1st one is the $20 difference in shipping to the UK
They could all possible be the same internals instead of making different ones? I dunno, just guessing but it does say in the list it will fit my bike. I do see your point though.
