    thats a good interchange model.
    750/1000/1100 8&16v. should fit...maybe some others.
    note:
    my experience is with earlier 850's.
    if i'm wrong...someone tell me
    also,
    used starters on this site for a buddy price is cheap.
    i get 100.00 per and sell a lot as i work on these GS turds for people
    post an ad in the wanted classifieds..

      What's wrong with it?

      It's likely very dirty inside, so take it apart and clean it.

      Then inspect the brushes. not much can 'break' with a starter, magent, brushes and current basically.

      Brushes are probably worn and can be replaced without much trouble or $$$. A 'new' used starter probably not in much better shape than yours and if its a 'new' old starter w/new brushes for $100....get new brushes for yours for much less.

      Pics? Description?
