I took mine off and did not need it, but really, I should have left in on just in case.

I use my kick start to rotate the engine to TDC when adjusting the valves.

The problem people have with kick starters is that if they battery goes low or the scoot won't crank after a few minutes...they use the kicker as a "STOMP" Starter.. If it won't fire up cranking it..it won't fire up by stomping it either.. Even Yamaha..Honda and other Japanese made bikes..will shear the kicker off if stomped on to hard and too often.. They are a BACKUP means of starting...not a primary means.. But even if they were a primary means..folks would continue to jump 3-4 feet up in the air..before coming down on the kick lever to start it... These are 50-150cc bikes..not 1,200cc 1963 Harley Davidsons..
