New kick starters

<< < (2/3) > >>

gowen:
Yes, I have. But, I did not snap it, I just warped it by jumping on it and not lubricating it. It still works fine, just over rotates. It's a huge difference against the old one, there is a pic of it here, I'll find it.

Rick:
I used to have to replace my kicker about every 8 months, primarily because I ride/race sooooo much.  However, with the new updated kicker that came on my 2002, I have yet to have to purchase a replacement.

hughes:
I looked up the part number on bikebanit.com for a 2004 kx500 kick starter. My question is that going to be the new updated unit. :?:

gowen:
yes

jdv500:
hello, can they, the new type lever, be found anywhere cheaper then $95.00 in bike bandit.? and if i am to use bike bandit is it true to order the 2002 or above to get the beefier lever.? thanks guys, jdv
ps: getting ready for my last ride today before loading it up, i kicked it and heard a snap, right at the pivot. glad it did'nt happen out on the trail and did it right at the truck.
