slightly tricky because you are in Denmark.
Do you know the Danish club at all, many very helpful people there such as chairmen Jens just for starters.
You can order from anywhere in Europe (since you are in the EU unlike us brits) there is no importation tax to pay, Germany or Holland have good suppliers, I would suggest you order from OCT in Germany.

Hi and welcome to the Forum.
You may struggle, I'm afraid. I bought Wolfgang's last new one in 2019 ... :-[ (Regrettably I never got a reply from Roger at OCT, despite Piet's help).
These guys still list one. Whether they have it or not is another matter.

Hello Ventodue,
normally starters and alternators are easy to fix, I refurbished two for a friend last week.
What can be defective?
- the winding (extremely rare)
- The coals are worn out (more often)
- as a result of bad coals, the copper contact surface on the rotor is worn out (= sparks)
- The rotor winding is defective (short circuit, occurs very rarely)
- the bearings are defective (rather rare)
Please also check
- is the start relay really ok?
- is the battery resilient/ok?
- Is the starter freewheel ok?
The above points are easy to fix if you have the knowledge and a late.
In addition, some of the Zane starters fit the three-cylinders with little adjustments.
It would be ideal if you could borrow a starter from another Laverdisti to see, if the problem is really your starter.
Can you remove the starter and open it carefully?
If I had pictures of coals and the runner, I would be better able to assess where the problem lies.
If you get stuck (which I don't believe), you can send me the starter.
I then overtake him for max. 50 EUR (plus shipping costs) if neither of the two windings is burned out.

I have one of those in great condition. Sent you a P.M.
Alan.
Alan.
Thanks for all your answers. The starter that was fittet on the bike screamed like nothing i have ever heard before and Then it just stopped the bike. It was completely warned when i took it apart so a rebuild is not a easy job i think. I have tried to order in germany but still no news from there.
I have replyed to Alan and i hope we can make a deal so i can try the Rgs for some decades

Sounds like your clutch of your starter has gone. If you heard this sound, during the Laverda-Motor was running, it schould be that case.
Them the motor will be seriosly damaged as it went much too fast.

And that would mean definitely DO NOT fit a new starter without looking into the starter clutch issues beforehand.

Ah! It's not me with the problem, Thomas - but our new member, Platugle !
. But Alan seems to have got him sorted, fingers crossed.But thanks for your post. All good stuff! And just for your amusement, here's what my old one looks like ...
