(1)if you have a pull start like i do.
(2)or if you have a full double kick stand on the rear that holds the back wheel off the ground and you peddal in place and release the clutch it starts in place.
(3)run with bike jump on and release the clutch.
(4)stand up on bike peddal 10 feet and release clutch.
(5)sit on bike roll down hill and release clutch.
(6)make homemade electric start conversion and rig to pull start or back wheel.
(7)mount engine on electric bike and use the electric power to get to speed and release clutch to start gas engine.

Yes, if you weigh three hundred pounds and you can pedal the bike from a dead stop.

I Have Seen Vids On U Tube, Just Pick Up The Back Wheel By The Bike Seat And Kick The Peddle Down With The Clutch Released (engaged). Jim, Dvdtz Rode Up Here Today, He Likes His Copper Exhaust Gasket. (7 Hp Wow!!) He Took My Diy Cvt Belt Drive With Freewheel Sprocket For A Nice Cruise. He Wants One!! Later I Asked Him If He Wanted To Take If For Another Ride. Big Smile, Y E S. We Started It Up And The Cyl Head Fin Melted Thru The Gas Tank. I Think You Call That A Dnf!! I Still Dream Of 7 Hp. Ron

Guys,

Don't be offended...I can start my bike by walking beside it with my right hand pressing hard on the seat!
