Yes i know what you mean victor lol.but anyway you will have to remove the clutch cover to inspect.it will be the idler gear or mechamism for the kick start.easy to sort out,when you press on the kick start it pushes out to engage the cogs,yours is worn or teeth are missing from the cog,get them cheap on ebay.

For crying out loud, not another one!! What the blazes are you talking about? Have you read your question back to yourself before posting? If you have, why didn't you realized that it's complete gibberish you've wrote. Full marks to the tech who can give you an answer as I haven't got a clue what you're asking.
