Honestly admitt I don't miss the kickstarter of the previously owned W650 at the W800. Sometimes I used it, mostly not. I don't have to proof a successful 'real man's' kickstart to me or anybody else. I don't kickstart the Bullet often although I could, if I want to. Pushing a knob is so much easier, if the battery works fine and saves kickstarter mechanics from being damaged by too many faulty attempts, which can likely be the case with a lot of kicks that lead into nothing. I found it amusing that a lot of Bullet EFI and W650 owners when being asked, all 'tough' motorbike riders, do the same and prefer pushing knobs. As I do, they know why. The CB doesn't offer this option. So it's out of question. Of some I read, they wish the CB would have one as the CB750four had. Honda knows, why they left it out. I can imagine why.
