If you look around you should be able to find something with hub front and rear brakes, tube tyres, a kickstarter, crappy lights oil leaks and shit handling.

Actually a kick starr would be useful if it were in addition to the electric starter. I'm guessing there's a limit on the size of engine that could be comfortably kick started though.gn2 wrote:If you look around you should be able to find something with hub front and rear brakes, tube tyres, a kickstarter, crappy lights oil leaks and shit handling.

Most frightening thing I've kick started was a 4 stroke 500cc single cylinder CCM. You just never knew if it was going to kick back. 
Paddle harder. I can hear banjo music!

Re: AAAH, HARLEYS!
Donkey's years ago, a mate of mine had an old Ariel Square 4 1000cc. I kept well away from that when he was trying to kickstart it!! 
As I grow older, my mind doesn't just wander......sometimes it buggers off completely!!
