As he said! Also..wanna make it easier and also be able to get to the compression stroke better? Take off the kicker lever..then re-intall it at about 2:00 O'Clock vice parallel to the ground as they come from the factory.. Works like a charm..AND it will also keep them from bottoming out and breaking the CVT cover or ruining the kicker gears inside.. Remember it is just a good firm stepping down on it..not a Flying Ninja jump and stomp..as I see so many folks do.. Looks like they are trying to kill Rats on the Sidewalk instead of starting their Scoot..
