Yeah, to be honest, I can start mine with my hand, or else, I will kick it, while I'm standing next to it, that way, you don't hit the nerfs. But, yeah, if I'm standing on it and kick it, it's kind of hard to stop it half way through the motion, so it usually bottoms out.

Are you re-jetting for the winter? I usually go up 1 jet size in October, and then another size in late November/December. Then in the spring I'll go down 2 jet sizes. Your porbably running it lean, not by much, but still, might be worth it too switch jets.

i leave mine in first gear and sit on it. i rock it foreward hard enough with my body so that the engine cranks a little bit. this is enough to get it started. i just have to be quick about pulling in the clutch or it will instantly die out again.

 

no kickstarter needed.

 

when a reasonably stock engine is tuned properly, it should be incredibly easy to start. if you have to kick it more than a few times something is wrong.

 

i can leave mine sitting for a month or more and jump on it and it will start by rocking it or if i use the kickstart it awalys starts on first kick.
