Hello I picked up a 1983 Gs1100e . I jumped the starter from the starter solenoid to check the engine for compression. The starter winds and thats it. I then remove the starter clutch cover on the left side of the engine. Everyting looks good . Except the starter clutch spins freely both ways and the crankshaft is not spinning just the starter cluctch. How do I replace a starter clutch. Is there a easy way to fix it without removing it. Also i see the generator rotor is in the way before the starter clutcdh so then has to be removed. Is this a easy task? Anyone wanna sell me a starter clutch????thanks guys
