thanks.
Mh... I'd check the voltage before buying a new starter. I really doubt that it is a faulty starter. A stronger battery doesnt help. I tried a booster on mine, its so powerful that you can start a Tiger tank after 60 years easily but my Gasser didnt start with it. I added new, thicker cables, got an updated CDI, added an additional ground cable between battery and starter, full program. Also greased the gears, nothing helped.
Suddenly one day it worked, no clue why.

I run a weaker Shido battery in my 2019 and it starts fine. I tried the stronger 2019 battery in my 2018 it still hesitates before it starts when cold... its a bit of a mystery.

Hope you get it sorted, keep my fingers crossed!
