FJRIGJWWE9R1PIC_RATING:COMMENTS It was not easy to kickstart. It required a good 15-20 kicks to fire up. Engine was a disappointment. No flywheel weight, no power. Build quality was so-so. I didn’t buy it...

FJRIGJWWE9R1PIC_RATING:COMMENTS never owned one but have started them for new owners on a number of occasions. I found they responded to standard single technique with first time starting. Strangely one owner was told by the supplier to use twin theory ie up to compression and then a big heave. never worked.
