Product Overview

Preguntas frecuentes sobre compatibilidad
¿Esta pieza es compatible con mi modelo y año específicos?
This starter motor is designed for select Honda CB500F, CB500X, and CBR500R applications when the original starter matches OEM 31200-MGZ-J01 or 31200-MGZ-J81 and the 9-tooth CCW design. Please compare your original starter motor’s part number, tooth count, rotation direction, body shape, mounting points, and electrical terminal before ordering.

Yes, matching the OEM or reference number is strongly recommended. This starter motor replaces Honda references 31200-MGZ-J01 and 31200-MGZ-J81. However, OEM number alone is not enough. Please also confirm the 9-tooth gear, CCW rotation, mounting layout, shaft position, and terminal style.
