I could, but if I ever park it and worry someone might actually know how to kickstart it AND take it... I'll just take the spark plug wires with me. I'd just pull one up off the plug but I think anyone who knows how to start this bike will know that trick. HONESTLY... I'm not worried about anyone taking this thing off me.
That is something I never thought of with kickstart bikes... no keys lol. Most of them don't start on the first kick anyways, so at least you'd kinda know.
This one is hard to start since it's an 80" motor. Shovels, pans were easy to start because much less compression. Electric start was for pussies back in those days.
