The International CBX Owners Association

I am working on an engine project with 70mm bore and high compression pistons, Fallicon rods and flowed head. I am a little concerned about the starter performance and much to my surprise, I found this:
Rick's Motorsport Electrics offers a bolt-in CBX starter in a 4-brush perm magnet design (as opposed to the stock two-brush field coil version) with 30-40% more power.
Part-number 61-115. And for $220.- it seems to be a helluva deal, even as replacement for a stock bike, considering what Louis would ask for a good starter.
Has somebody heard of, or better, tried this?

Mike:
TIMS sells a 4-brush starter also - maybe the same one? I think Nils has one on his bike.

I do indeed, it is good looking, and cranks hard and fast with a newish DieHard AGM battery. Bear in mind I have no frame of reference on how it works compared to a stocker. Tim's charges $225, so a pretty comparable value.
