Disconnect your battery before removing the starter.
Starter removal is easy just like sycarms says. Once those 2 bolts are off from the top of the engine case you will need to wiggle and pry the starter out to the left. Then follow the wire lead to the fuse panel, where it's bolted to the solenoid terminal. Remove the nut and remove the wire. Install new starter in the reverse order.
I'd recommend buying an aftermarket hi torque starter like those orange and chrome Nibbi brand ones. Starts faster and should last longer. In Canada the best deals I found are at Scootertuning.ca in Quebec. I try to buy from them when possible to save on the ridiculous shipping and duty fees from the US. if need to buy across the border them try SYC Power Sports that Sycarms offers.
