Shift Kit Installed, Now starting is hard

hey guys i finally got my shift kit installed, after quite some time just trying to get the masterlink onto the drive sprocket. i swear any tighter it would burst.
anyways

now my engine is really hard to start because both chains are so tight i can bearly pedal, even when holding the clutch.
any shift kit owners how much slack do you have on the right side chain? mine is as tight as the drive side, meaning no slack, would i be better off adding a half link to have maybe a quarter inch of slack? or leave it?
how hard is it for you guys to crank your engine even on first gear?

i ended up getting it, i went out and got some high quality chain lube, i would suggest using that when you guys do yours because it is really hard to pop that master link in on the 415chain side, and both sides lossened up a bit and now pedaling is easy and i can go faster too. shifting is also way fun compared to single sprockets

make sure you go over the directions a couple times so you can get an idea of how its going to be,
when adding the masterlink to the drive sprocket its easiest to add if both ends of the chain are wrapped around the sprocket that way all you have to worry about is pushing the link through.
lube your chains if they are to tight
use loc tite thread locking substances on all bolts
dont hammer bearings or axle or sprockets on to axles, because you have to remove them several times and the axle will flare at the end a bit causing problems when you try to put something back on
also a tip on removing the bottom bracket if you dont have the remover tool.
after you remove the cranks put a flathead screwdriver in one of the notches and over the axle and pry it, mine loosened very easy. the right side loosens clockwise and the left side loosens counterclockwise so dont forget that.

yea ino it loosened up just right after some lube ;]
lol but yea its good now, shift kit is soo much more fun, im never going back to single speed, now im in love with my bike 10times more
