starter noise

So the starter is making a grinding whining sound when being turned over then suddenly acts normal sometimes I have to bump the key to get it to catch or crank right any help appreciated I am a mechanic but not on atv and scooters but can fix any of it

Sounds like the bendix/starter clutch to me.

Also could there be anyway on the Carb to have an air leak around the rubber choke cable boot for loss of power
