kick start lever

[barahonapr]

my kick start lever is hard as shit to turn so i can kick to turn my shee on. i mean it hurts my dam hands when i try and pull it out.. its that hard to come out. should i get a new one or is there a way to fix this?

try to remove the screw n take it apart. clean up the inside wit wire brush. up might have dirt or corrosion jammed up in it or the o-ring might b messed up. if that dont work check wit site sponsers, the sell a rebuild kit for the kicker. its only like $10. if that dont work get a new one

mine can be a little bit of a bitch to move out sometimes.....it used to flop out all the time until i put a small washer under the spring inside of it. now it does not flop out while im riding......however i have to apply some upward force (pull up on the damn thing) to get it to swing over easy. Also it eliminated the damn rattle.
