Gear Cluster Rubbing on Casing

Am rebuilding my engine and when installing the gear cluster it rubs on the casing when rotating. Marks on casing look like there has been slight rubbing at some point in the past.

But Decided to get another crank built, I'm building the scooter as a keeper and want strong bottom end so can upgrade top end in future if desired and cost here is not huge compared with the cost of total rebuild.

Re: Have I screwed up my new flywheel bearing collar/ race?

On on that didn't go well. Removing the bearing race with a grinder, put hose clamps on for protection and went slowly and carefully but no crack line appeared , at least to my old eyes, and have ended up putting a flat on the nearing surface of the crank.
