Why have kick starters gone extinct?

[Short Timer_imp]

Could probably mock one up in plastic and glue in place for the look. Maybe Mr. T could get a company to make a new cover with a dummy lever.

I too miss the joy of kick starting a bike just to relive the memories. Hence the constant search for a good small CB 350F, or 350, or 400F or GB500. But I will have a 1970 CB750 soon enough for that memory.

The challenge then would be to leap on the kick starter while using the electric start with such exquisite timing that watchers thought you'd actually kick started it.
