electric start
« on: October 14, 2014, 11:38:00 AM »
Is there any upgrades for like a button or key start for these bikes. Any ideas for this? Just fishing around looking at all possible options. Thanks

Electric start would be cool.  However (and don't roll your eyes - lol) if you have your jetting close, top end is fresh, power valve is clean and a good plug, the bike will start easily.  Mine is rarely more than two kicks, even when cold.

Granted, electric start would be nice for when you're really tired, are in a really bad spot (like stuck on the side of a hill), etc.

Im putting my engine in a small buggy. I was just trying to figure ways around having to make room to kick it once its in. Hoping with a decomp valve and pushing it tht it will start easy or at least easier to kick if room
