You have a 1987 model. That year had straight starter drive gears (no over-torque limiter). Some folks modify those old engines to accept the newer starter drive system that utilizes an over-torque limiter. The over-torque limiter can wear out and slip. Any chance your bike has been modified to utilize the over-torque limiter?

Does your starter drive look like this?
