Starter Bendix for 2-stroke scooters with a belt-driven variator (12 mm shaft). It is a one-way clutch: it transmits rotation from the starter to the crankshaft during starting and disengages once the engine has started. Country of origin: China.
Signs of a worn Bendix: the starter spins but the crankshaft does not turn, and a grinding or clanking noise is heard when starting. During replacement, it is worth inspecting the drive gears too. The Bendix works together with a gear, so worn teeth on it can also be the cause of slipping.
