[QUOTE="zcookie49, post: 94603, member: 21043"] [b]any solutions[/b] Now is it your actual kickstart shaft, where the peice hits the foot peg, for they have placed additional metal there to compensate this.....I did the same in the beginning, i lost half the metal on the added lip on the kickstarter. When I replaced my bars and grips, I took one of my old grips, cut out a portion and placed it on the rear of the foot peg where the kick starter hits, i used 2-3 zip ties and adhered it to "cushion the impact" of the kickstarter to the peg. Now granted, this shouldnt be necessary, but in my mind it is preempative maintenance.... I thought I had my routine down pat, no problems for a long time, then yesterday at the track, started bike up, then popped off choke for prob 30 secs, rode into a muddy berm, and stall.. I tried all my tested routines and it just wouldnt grab, went up an pull started it real quick behind a 4 wheeler for it was hot and i didnt want to screw around with it... I am now thinking that if the bike is not properly warmed up, and stalls, the bike cant figure out if it is in hot start mode or chok3. it is really weird, for no gas given to flood it out.. oh well.. maybe the grip on the foot peg might work for you...
