Another dual sport was my 1984 XL600R. Fun bike hard to start when hot and sometimes when cold. I tried every combination of things to get it to start and some would work for awhile but then KICK KICK KICK !!!. Nothing worse than splitting lanes up to a stop light, light turns green and the already to lean motor coughs and leaves you sitting there kicking while the traffic honks as they go by flipping you off yelling foul words . All you can do is kick it or push it off to the side of the road. I think this was the bike that I finally said "If it doesn't have a electric start I'm not buying it".Sunday, January 18, 2009
