Kick start with dead or no battery?
On a 2014 250, should you or shouldn?t you be able to still kickstart the bike with a dead or no battery?
Bike died this morning whilst in the woods, no lights, no speedo nothing. Tried to kick start it and wouldn?t go. Pulled plug to check for spark, no spark.
Got home tested battery, 2.0v and discharges rapidly as soon as the meter is put across it.
Fitted new battery and All is ok.
Now, I have always been under the parhaps wrong impression that you should always still be able to kick or bump start a bike with a dead or even no battery attached.
