The second idea is a little better maybe in terms of durability. I could perhaps use something like Loctite or steel stick to just set a stud into the hole and secure the starter motor with a nut at the end. The first idea I saw on an on a Honda website, and the second was a suggestion of a good friend of mine with considerably more experience than I have.
Which idea would you prefer? I can see pluses and minuses to each strategy.
