LC Alloy Kicker
LC Alloy Kicker
Saw this on EvilPay and thought hmmmmmmm.............
Something like $40 posted so......
Whats to the worst thing if it can't be made fit; re-sell it on ebay
First thing is to biff to see if it polishes up nicely....
Hmmm, looking good
The shaft and the hole are 15mm so a 15mm drill bit later.
I miscalculated (longer than I thought) but drill and thread the knuckle and a bolt should work .
The engagement is good. I might have to be a little careful with the kicking but should work. But it all worth it for ingenuity, bling and, of course, weight savings .

Re: LC Alloy Kicker
looks decent enough, did he have more or just the one?
Re: LC Alloy Kicker
Drilled and tapped the 'knuckle', inserted a specialised washer with a 15mm collar that holds the screw and washer, 6mm tap, 6mm GTR1000 fairing screw and hey presto .
Not too bad, It works , we'll see how long it lasts .
I might get better photos if I drag the bike outa the shed or get a better camera .

Re: LC Alloy Kicker
This guy was only selling the one but others would probably go close. Specifically this was a 2009 Yamaha YZ125.JonW wrote:looks decent enough, did he have more or just the one?

Re: LC Alloy Kicker
May be mistaken but this looks like the kickstart lever on my long-departed* RZ500

Re: LC Alloy Kicker
RZ500 is a fair bit different to that.

'My eye are dim I can not see I have not got my specs with me,

As to the rest........well the memory is fading - probably for good reason .
