    Is my starter actually bad?

    The bearing looks fine. It was just a needle bearing inside, and besides begging for some grease it doesn't seem to have any problems. I am not sure what you mean by broke. The front of the teeth are worn off, but the circled thing is a separate part that I presume is just a stop and is held...
