I got it to start by turning the engine over a little. My question is how do I access the starter. I'm thinking it's on the opposite side to the variator. Once accessed what should I do to service it? TIA 👍

There's no Bendix gear, it's a Sprag clutch behind the flywheel. https://manuals.wotmeworry.org.uk/Vespa/LX125-150ie%203v/
