kickstart spring/engine case woes

<< < (2/2)

JBKX:
Same thing happened to me some years ago.  I bent the end of the spring that goes in the hole so it hooks just a bit.  I had to drive the end into the hole, however it hasn't tripped out yet.  I don't ride that bike much so I can't tell you how long it'll last with regular usage.

KXT500:
any shop that works on aluminum heads or radiators should be able to weld that up in a couple seconds. redill the hole and rock on. no need for new cases.
