Ex500 - Sat for 2 years, has random "Slap" while trying to start

Crap,I just had the clutch cover off and I have a spare motor - I could have replaced the gear. A missing tooth explains that.

I also noticed that this motor vibrates like crazy in the handle bars. Is that normal? I've seen alot of 250s but nothing like this. There's no engine noise to go with the vibrations so it's not bearings of wrist pins or crank etc... I'm just wondering if that's normal? I suspect it is but wow. I couldn't ride this thing.

Thanks for the answers so far... very .. umm... consoling... except for the tooth thing. LOL
