450ER Starting

[B.C.#11TRX400EX]

I have a 08 450ER it has a fly racing start button and I ride XC and it doesnt start fast at all and i need it too so wat do I need to do? Also it has a kinda small battery called bike master

Either 24v system, or a kicker. A rekluse helps alot, also.

decompressor adjustment

Im not putin a kicker on it I no that, but I'll look into the chain adjustment and 24v thanks guys

Just curious why you don't want a kicker?

[B.C.#11TRX400EX]

Well for occra its a shotgun start so id rather have electric to be quick, I ride trails a lot too and hunt so electric start is just helpful, If I raced motocross id have one but I like XC better and I want electric start

[superdutyfarmer]

why not put both on, I had both on mine untill the one way clutch took a crap. I just removed the electric all together. I can start alot faster off the line with the kicker so I saw no need for the electric start. But if you let your electric on you can still use the electric to start if your hunting or stall on the trail during the race.

kicker only with rekluse 1 partial kick in gear and its holeshot time
we start with hands on helmets!

I didnt no u could have both, so if u have that you can use both whenever? Or do u have to mod it to be able to use the other one every time

[fomospede]

you can use either anytime
i have a complete kicker assemlby
will sell it shipped 275 in lower 48

I have both. I use the kicker to start on the line because it's faster, but I typically use the electric if I stall on the track.
