Easiest way, sell the 09, buy an old bike, get the full effect

I would think there are safer mods to bring attention to yourself.

Fuel Injection + Kickstart = No Start

Haven't seen one of them levers hanging off street bike(s) since 80's...probably can be done (anything's possible), but question is why? After kicking my son's dirtbike over a few minutes - I was having flashbacks to HD's "kick-back" and having sore leg/bruises. Trust me - you don't want it...bite-back's a bitch.

We tried to push start my buddy's '10 FXDC when the battery was dead after a chow stop one day. With two of us pushing to a near gallop we couldn't get it going. I can't imagine how hard it would be to kick start it. No idea why you'd want to try.

Looks like the one on Baker's website says you have to convert from EFI to Carb.

I thought having both might be an option. As far as buying an old bike.. I've looked into older bikes and I am looking at 25K as opposed to the 13 or 14k I have invested into my 09'.. and a lot less headaches. Thanks for the Sarcasm Dean... next time stay off of the thread..
