if you really wanted you could somehow rig the setup from a drz-400 kickstart crank case. i dont know if it would work but it would cost a fortune

If you really want kickstart do a conversion and put the dirtbike drz400 motor in your z

Yeah tell him its a 450 R Honda otherwise he is not that bright. The compression on modern 4 strokes is high and once he kicks them a few times he will want his starter back. Let me guess he want reverse gone also. Just go buy the Honda, the ONLY reason i bought a Z400 was because it has ELECTRIC START AND REVERSE, otherwise i would have bought the Honda.:cool:

have you ever even kicked a 450r? so easy it's ridiculous.

the only reason i would want one is so i have a backup incase the starter goes tits-up.
