Clutch cable too tight? Striped kickstart splines? Will it bump start?

if not the above , its probably a damaged kicker pinion gear , a cases split job , as jedihunter says ya clutch adjustments first port of call, stick it in gear n try to wheel it , if it rolls n doesnt turn the engine its a slippin clutch ,slacken the cable an if it dont recover its a clutch cover off n clutch out job , H

It bump starts and runs ok but won't turn over with the kickstart so I think it's another strip down job.

def the above , an the old cure is to drill a fine 1.5mm hole down the joint between kicker n shaft twice, stuff a old needle bearing in each hole an do the new high tensile clamp bolt up buggery tight , saves all the buggeration of tryin to weld/build up the shaft or new kicker , an micky ,like the font actually ,didnt need my magoo glasses to read that 1 , H
