Default Kickstarter for my Bobber??

I have an 09 Dyna street bob and am interested in having the option to kickstart it. Does anyone know if this is an option and where can I have it professionally added without losing my usual electric starter?

Cant do a kickstarter on an EFI bike. You cant spin it enough to fire the crank sensor. Swap it for a carb and your good to go. Or get a fakie for looks. I would like a true kicker too but thats life.

Welcome from Virginia......my friend has a FX. tells me to tell you, you do not want a true kicker. However I would have thought a FI would be easier to start. Not sure if fast enough or enough turn counts for the crank sensor. That's interesting. Your kick on a 6 speed would also hang out rather far I think if there is an adapter.

Nice looking bike. Would look cool with a kickstart, but it isn't in the cards.
