    Starter clutch runs on

    Redid the starter clutch 2 years ago with new gear, bearings and rollers

    Now, it's occasionally running on when I start the bike. The bike starts up right away, then I can hear a whining that's spools down and stops

    Anyone had this problem?

    Any ideas?

    Yeah, I know I need to pull it apart

    I've seen this when the bolts start backing out of the rotor.
    Also if the crank taper becomes screwed up and it pushes the rotor into the clutch.
    I've also seen the barrels wear through the spacer.
