Is this a bad Bendix? And what’s causing this crankshaft issue?

Bendix shakes up and down and was shaking back and forth but seems locked in place somewhat. Crankshaft is hard to turn by hand and bendix doesn’t spin with it. I’m not too sure what would suddenly cause the crankshaft to feel stiff. I recently changed the drive sprocket and needle bearing, put it all back together and it wouldn’t fire up and had that whining noise

Rotax max 12t drive sprocket change

Got a new sprocket on the way, should be here by Friday. I’m trying to get it swapped out to hit the track on Monday. However I don’t have the fixation tool. Would a flathead screwdriver and using an impact be sufficient enough to take the nut off? I’m going to order the tool but in the event it does not get here by the weekend I’m trying to find an alternative. Or is it a waste of time/energy without it?

Thanks in advance

I’m having a hard time finding a suit in my correct size. I’m just looking for something for practice as my buddy and I are going to get team suits made eventually.

Has anyone used or currently wear the Praga long pants? I can get a pair for $10 at Trackhouse motorplex next week, but not sure how thick or thin they are. Would they be ok to practice in? And can they be zipped together with a karting jacket? Will continue to look for a suit, but I just don’t want to keep running in jeans until I can find one.
