I take it you returned the starter you got for $140. I've never had an issue with the DB ELECTRICAL prods. And with a 1 year warrenty you can't go wrong. Most places will only warrenty for a month or two, or against MFG defects. Beats spending over $100 for something so small, and something that doesn't get used THAT much. I mean, howmany times does an atv starter really get used in a day? Now, a car starter gets used far more in a day.
