Tao Tao Starter

My starter on my ATA250D has stopped working, by that I mean it's turning and it's turning the starter reduction gear but now for some reason it's not turning the starter drive clutch gear (or the 2 gears before the starter drive gear). It had always made a really loud noise when starting but now it won't turn the motor over. I took the starter & the reduction gear and plate off and the plate over the magneto off and everything looks fine, no broken or striped gears. At first I thought the starter had went bad or striped the gear but it looks good. Just wondering what may have happened? Anyone else had this issue and what did you do to fix it?
Thanks

Sounds like the bearing clutch behind flywheel
