[QUOTE="TexXR, post: 147334, member: 19176"] Good question. I'll have to think on that one. Maybe I'll just keep my handle and become a spy. I may be a bit preliminary in this statement but this thing actually starts a lot easier than my XR400. I've even tried to screw it up by warming it up, killing it, and then twisting the throttle. I restarted it on the first kick after I pulled in the compression release and rolled it through 5 or 6 times. I didn't even use the hot start. This was the biggest fear I had about the bike after hearing the stories and seeing bikes on the side of the trail. I've cold started it 6 times now and each time it has started on the first kick. I figured out real quick that after you roll it to TDC you don't let the kickstarter all the way up...only about 2/3's the way up, that way you have much more mechanical advantage on the kick. With it all the way up I can stand on it with one foot and it will not move, and I weigh 225 lbs!!! [/QUOTE]
