Maintenance & Technical > KX500 Original

Oops...

Brute:
So I washed the KX500 today, rolled it a little down the yard and bump started it in second with the compression release pushed in. Later the wife gets on me for what I did in the yard. "Did what?" "You know what, and don't tell me you don't!"
So I go look. Two big bare spots where the lawn is torn off down to dirt. I am thinking there are two pulses showing. If the engine turns at say, 600 rpm, as soon as it fires that is ten revolutions per second. In the short part of a second between when the bike fired and I had the clutch pulled in, that would be about right I guess... Two good pulses. Two spots of torn up lawn... Oops. Good thing I didn't have more room in front of me or it would have been one long strip!
