2006 Yamaha grizzly 125 starter just spins

[Grizzlypicks]

Right here goes I have a yamaha grizzly 125 2006 the starter just spins. I have replaced the one way clutch and a good second hand starter that I know works cause it came off my mates quad. When I press the button the big cog at the back spins to the left is this right way. Also what does the primary clutch do in the starting could this be the problem. How it happened I was out knocked it off and just would not start I've been months fiddling with it so please help????????

2008 Yamaha 125 Grizzly has starter issues.  Cranks the engine fine at times.  Occasionally the starter just spins.  Replaced the starter, same issue.  New to ATV repair.  Is the starter clutch assembly more suspect?  Upon disassembly I noticed a lot of heat at one time where the assembly rides in the gear assembly. ??? Much help appreciated.  Hate to continue to throw good money into a crap shoot...lol
