Do kickstarter levers bend?
It’s just that I bought a used one and looks bent like they were running 13:1 compression
It’s a bugger getting parts in New Zealand.

When engines aren't tuned correctly, people get real uppity with the kicker, stand on them, full body weight, bend city. I've seen a couple that were really abused, almost 120 degrees bend. We used to have contests to see who's engines would start the easiest, by using the kicker....BY HAND. |
