Too much work Electric start all day

[goosehd]

@Denimhead-0 I like my knees where they are and would go with the electric start too…mid way through that video you could see it catch and kick over…just about launched that guy. It would have probably broken something on me.

sissies,

[goosehd]

@injunjack 1700cc single cylinder would be a handful, but sure call me a sissy.

@injunjack By the time I started riding,there were no Kickstarters,but I would’ve liked to have experienced it once. On another note…I’ve never seen anyone kickstart a bike on the first try.

[injunjack]

Lol, of course 1700cc is a handful.. most with proper comp are, even with less cc's. Most of my kicksart bikes start with 1st-2nd proper kick. Usually there are 3-6 preliminary kicks to get motor primed with fuel... my e-start bike doesn't usually start with first flick of the starter.

@injunjack last kick, every time!

@injunjack I’m 54, I would snap my femur

[goosehd]

@Denimhead-0 I feel the same as old guys don't get where they are by repeating the mistakes of our youth...I still do stupid stuff, but now I think twice about doing it

@goosehd I’ve got so much dumb/stupid stuff in the bank that I should be a very wealthy man. Hoping not to make any more deposits,but every now and then I’ll do something,and that voice says you just don’t want to learn do you.

Or how’d you ever get to be this old.

[WhiskeySandwich]

@goosehd yup! Thinking twice before you do something dumb just makes you feel half as smart when it goes wrong. Lol

[goosehd]

…thanks for the laughs gentlemen!! To bring this back full circle, I would rather have made those stupid mistakes and say I have lived, then to spend my life saying I wish…

My body disagrees with that though…

Pics from this summer, haven’t got out as much as I’d like but started started riding the dirt bike again after my buddy got a new bike.
