Hi and thank you in advance. I just got this bike and it runs great once you get t started. The problem is the starter drive keeps kicking out. I have a 1978 XS650 with the same problem-sounds like a bunch of marbles until it actually kicks in and turns over. XSmike.com sells a kit for the problem for the XS650. I am wondering if this is the same setup as the TX500. On the XS650,it is a problem with the spring behind the clutch basket. The spring is too weak to keep the starter drive kicked in and so it grinds and sounds like a bunch of marbles.I have not taken the right side cover off yet,thought I would ask if it is the same as the XS650 before I take it apart.
