Yes, the starter motort is the electric starter. Have you replaced the fuse you removed? Have you checked it's working? I had my Datatool removed recently cos it appeared to be draining the battery. The local bike shop agreed and removed it, but it still discharged! Ended up replacing rectifier too. All OK now but this replace-it-and-see approach is my approach and I expected better from pros. Apparently removing the alarm requires secret knowledge available only to Datatool cognoscenti, for obvious reasons. I imagine if you disable the alarm by eg removing the fuse, you also disable starting circuits including the starter motor. If the alarm keeps triggering, it could well be faulty and you might want to think about removing it. But get a second opinion here!
