Just when you think it could not get any stranger . Out side my bank the other day I saw a twin cam with what I thought was a kick starter on it , I'm thinking ok but that isn't going to work worth a damn . Out comes the owner new rider stereotype to the hilt , he gets on the bike folds out the kick arm and as he pushs down I hear the starter kick in ! ! I Goggled this and its a " Simulated Kick Starter Kit " no gearing just hits a hidden switch , are you f*cking kidding me ....................

Holy shitkicken.........

  • Custom designed kit has a hydraulic clutch release. A hidden electric switch will engage the electric starter - gives that old school look and feel without the effort of old kickstarters
  • CNC made from 6061-T6 aluminum
  • Easy to install
  • Includes kickstarter arm and pedal
  • Fits 86-08 5 & 6 speed models with left side drive

...............all this for $399 and up!

Would be real funny if it took him like 6 kicks, if I had a kicker, it defiantly would be real, on probably on a few less CI's that my 07 twinkie.

It gets worse. You can buy a dummy kicker that does nothing. Even the pedal doesn't move. I give up with this $hit.
