well ive put months of research into this topic (im kinda wanting a goki myself) and heres what i came up with so far:

goods (to me anyway):
e start itself,
seems to be easy install.

bads (to me):
the design of the button,
cut rear plastic,
ive read on here that some people say it sounds loud and awful starting,
ive also read a few times goki is plain unreliable.

so thats my thoughts, and i still dont know if ill get one, really its one of those things id have to check out in real life first.

for me the worst part... not reliable..

also looks to me that is an easy instalation.

the button, we can always put the original one or cut it, not a big problem....

if its loud or not, dont care... the bike makes more noise..:D.. i just dont wanna be stuck in the middle of a climbing and have to kick my bike....

were can i buy it anyways?

i live in portugal....

thank you all.

yea its loud, the only problem i have had was I have to hit the button two times to get it to fire thenits fine after that. I used it today and no problems starting but i have to kick it to warm up and when i turn it off then come back later, one or two pushes it fires. well worth it if u ride the woods.

so, u say that if the bike is cold, it wont start with the estart? you have to kick it to warm it up?

thanks.
