The 86 & 87 models had a solid intermediate gear in the starter system.  This could (but not always) cause probelms if the bike was shut off during a compression stroke.

In the later model years a different gear was used to allow a torque slippage.

Are you going to inpsect the bike before purchase???

I did not know that.  DO you think that's why I get a strange sound like the starter is engaged during shut down?

The starter clutch is a one way thingy behind the flywheel/stator thing.   When you shut off the bike (any year) you should get a noise from it as it spins down, since it's metal and has mass.


I heard it on one of the Youtube posts....  if you have time use the link on the top of the Rubber Side down section to get to the Youtube searches.
