Ha! I'd like to see a little guy like you kick over a 450cc bike with a compression release valve....:lol: I have seen 160lb+ plus guys get thrown to the ground trying to kick over an old V-Twin!:lol:

A friend of mine had a KTM 380 2 stroke dirt bike. We would have to run in shifts to get that fucker started. A big bore v-twin? No thanks.

Give it a shot, brother. The electric starter on my meager 1203cc vtwin gets taxed very quickly.

The problem derf is that they are huge and usually have high compression. Take my chop for example. It ran 11:1 compression and was a 117 Cubic Inch motor. That's like 1950 cc's. I can't even imagine kicking that... WOW!!

kickin big motors is art in motion, and if you dont have a steel shank midsole in your boots, and a well setup carb, forget it. just go sit down.

I can't say I am familiar but i believe there is a compression release used in some of these
