Those types of start buttons require a gentle outward stroking motion for instant starts. Do not push them as that will tend to cause a misfire.

Pure Genius

Note the outstanding design features to fit the engine exhaust, after the fact Brand new Motorbike. I'd assumed it may have been simpler to reroute the exhaust or modify the engine mounting, just a wee bit

I would be honored for you to give me some instruction. Alas, now too old and grounded with a bad ticker. But, you are not so far away from where I now live, so what would be the best time of the year to visit where you are, and would a site seeing charter be a an option?
