Ultima primary drive starting problem

Checked gap
Used pinion gear with kit. Then tried the new improved pinion gear that's supposed to be the fix. No difference. The teeth appear to be hitting the ring gear too deep and not engaging into ring gear. Just a really **** poor design. Going to a machine shop tomorrow to see if I can get about .030 milled off of the pinion gear. Just spit balling at this point. If this doesn't work going back with factory chain drive.

There is not an outside bearing support. I purchased the Ultima street kit. I know, cheap. Got what I paid for I guess. Still have $1000 in it at this time and bike only grinds when trying to start. Have rechecked install three times. It is lined up and correct. Starter pinion is only variable I can come up with. Drilling out holes on pinion support cap has been suggested. A lot. Leads me to believe that the problem is in that area.
