i dunno about this electric start crap but i saw a guy with a kicker box with some gears to make it kick foward like an r...service honda had an AWESOME kicker box to do the same on that cr250 in an ex frame
why you want electric anyway??? crf easy to kick

crf easier to kick than a blaster. rear kick is nicer than front anyways IMO

Iv'e rode my buddy's 450 and that thing can be a real betch to start when you kill it.I still have scars on my leg from the ol' Sparks 250x I used to race,there was NO starting that thing on a hill it was back to the bottom and try again time:mad: I have heard the new 450 will be kick start but next year a woods model will be made.I know I will wait for the button!!!

Yeah, Bill and I have discussed this quite a bit and I agree - I'm just not interested in a kick start version of the 450 for woods racing. If I were an MX guy it would be fine, but I can also say from experience that the 450 is not particularly easy to start when it's hot - particularly when you're sitting on the side of a hill. I'll wait for the electric version...
