Have a check around on recent posts and, if I remember correctly, there is a method described to assess the issue on your cover. There is also a bearing in there that may need lube or replacing.
As far as the battery voltage is concerned, if the bike has been laid up for any length of time, the battery has either lost some charge or needs some exercise to bring it back up to full capacity.

I did read something about a bendix cover. Is this the cover you are referring to?
Also that battery in the video is brand new. That video is the first time ever trying to start with that battery
