[QUOTE="Bill Thomas, post: 125676, member: 485"] I have gone the other way !, We had trouble starting a friends Bike, Carb's with strange settings, And I have had trouble with mine from time to time. So with the Bike on centre stand, I put my left knee on the saddle, So my full weight is above the kicker and give it a bloody good swing, Spins it over a treat ! :D . Look like a twit doing it , But "Needs Must" . I am over 6 foot and when well, 200 lb ish. I know I should not have to do this, And of a rule don't, I stand astride and drop the valve lifter, But knees and things are playing up now, So need other options in case . Bit like Colin, I want it to start sooner rather than later, Before I get tired. [/QUOTE]
