He's an elderly man bump-starting that bike by himself, but he seems to do it effortlessly. Good goin'! I am 64 yrs old and had to bump-start a '79 Goldwing by myself recently, it is a damned hard job, let me tell you!

Not so much the weight but the viscous nature of shaft drive. My old 750 Yamaha triple was also hard to bump start.

I was about 21 when a friend of mine (a bouncer, no-less) 5 years older bought a 441. He offered to let me ride it since he knew that I'd ridden a few bikes of my own. I said: No-WAY! That thing shifts and brakes on the WRONG sides! I'll wreck it, and you'll beat me up, right? He said: No I won't! You'll get the hang of it, hop on! So I rode it about 4 miles, VERY fast. When I came back telling him how far I'd ridden it, in the little amt. of time it took me, THEN he 'almost' kicked my butt.

@MrGameControler Well, not the more stock ones. My two are one, two kickers. This is a flat-track racer and the engine is no doubt fairly radical, high compression, carbs, etc. But they take of extra weight on a race bike, so they must push to start them, or use a starter bar. Check out Speedway racers, they are so minimal, push starting is the only way to start them.

Sweet looking scooter. Some tips on bump-starting that may help next time. Use second gear, if you don't already do that, and pull it back in gear until you hit compression before pushing. When you bump, do it with throttle off until it begins to fire, then with your butt still on the seat, feed some throttle and slip the clutch as you take off, and throw your right leg over the top. If you time it all correctly, you'll be ready to hit third as you get settled in. (From an ex-road racer, back in the days when we had to bump-start when the flag dropped.)

No, no you don't. I didn't actually mean for him to run half the RPM, it's just curiosity on how smooth it would be at street bike idle. I also tend to run my bikes at a little lower than stock idle. I like the sound and the lower RPM is a little more critical of fuel mix so the bike NEEDS to be tuned right to idle smoothly.
