Just thinking the other day how satisfying it used to be swinging a bike into life with the kickstarter, and howling off up the road.... a real pose, and a well practiced knack....not a given by any means, I recall an old BSA single lung, that required the ignition retarding & manually de-compressing, before it would even think about kicking-back!!!!!!!

My XR250 has a kick start. Dunno why. It doesn't like starting from it, although it usually gets there in the end.

Not really. My old Honda NX650 Dominator was fun to kick start mind, My Bonnie was kick start only. Not a problem really. Would miss one if the battery was low
