    Thanks guys! So I've been playing with the new setup and find that you can no longer "rest" your foot on the kicker with out it falling through. There's no more finding top dead center and then grabbing another bite on the kicker. I can easily stay seated and manipulate the kicker with my left leg. The difference is amazing! Those boys down under know how decos are done!

    Rode a 360 with a vit's decomp in the head .
    It crash started really easily . Everything else annoyed the shit out of Me . Couldn't find tdc . If u kicked it too fast it pulled a vacuum and closed itself . Looks hideous
    Lot of people have to run the vacation line to the carb to air box join . As at kicking speed there is enough vacuum between the carb and reeds to close the valve

    Do it properly and put a chainsaw button in the back of the barrel . I've seen pictures of one that missed the water jacket . You only need a 3 mm passage from the sleeve through to the decomp.

    I've got a button in the back of an ac 500 . Couldn't ask for better . Still got the original worn out 44mm carb . Choke on . Kick it through twice slowly . Push button . Get it past tdc then kick . Starts every time . Even with the ugly original kickstart lever
