Geoff,
From memory it was a standard bought in Kick start lever which was modified at the factory by cutting and welding to clear the low slung exhaust on the first 360s.
As it was an albion box I'd look for an RE lever and modify that. Speak to Rob Thornton, he's the RE guru.

kick starter
Thanks Guys, the one on the bike is a modified one it has about 150mm added to the length it makes it easy to start but it gets in the way a bit when riding I'm going to keep bending it until I'm happy with it, the only reason I wanted an original one was for static display and to make the bike complete. anyway thanks for all the help I will keep my eyes peeled what ever that means? I think if you peeled your eyes it would hurt!! regards Geoff.

Kick starter
Thanks Bearingman, I do have the original one but it's been modified if you could send a pic and measure the length for me that would be great then I will restore the original. regards Geoff.
Geoff, I've removed your email address now you've decided what to do. Not a good idea to put them in posts - it attracts spam. Colin S.

36MX4 Kickstarts.
Hi Kenny, Geoff, Druid,
Maybe I can help out with a few more pics?
The first one is an early factory photo showing the 'straight' type lever. The next pic shows a bike sold on EBay a while back, again with the straight type lever. Pic three shows another EBay bike, this time with the 'cranked' type lever. Finally, the last pic is of Geoff's MX4 (as on his avatar, which he kindly sent me a while back), and it looks as though this may be the same as the cranked versions as described by Druid and Kenny.
I've seen pics of MX4's with both types fitted, so I'm guessing that the cranked type is the factory modified version as mentioned by Druid.
Hope this helps!
Brian.Last edited by Brian Thompson; 28/11/2010, 01:15 AM.
