How do you take off a starter of 2001 Yamaha warrior?

The starter is located in the frount of the motor in frount of the oil fill. The cover will have a couple of bolts, unbolt them and you will see the back side of the starter. Now there is a wire running to the top of the starter, disconnect it and the starter will slide out. you can test your starter on a car charger to see if it works. WARNING: REMOVING THE STARTER WILL CAUSE HALF OF THE OIL TO DRAIN FROM THE WARRIOR. THE TIP (GEAR ON THE FROUNT SIDE) OF THE STARTER IS THE ONLY THING HOLDING THE OIL FROM COMING OUT.
