Why have kick starters gone extinct?
#9
Lol like many of you I remember when they first started coming put with the new fangled electric starters. Up until then it was kick only. I can only wish my 59 Sportster had an electric starter and no kick starter. That thing was a beast to fire off if the right sequence wasn't followed which I still remember...ign off, choke on, kick twice, choke off, ign on, kick and pray.

A kick starter on an elect start bike saved me a few times in the past, but have not seemed necessary since they eliminated them.
