Yes I can start it by kicking it, but lately it's been dying mid ride. Not sure it's related though..

It could be related to battery trouble. Newer bikes (and probably the 18s) have a DC powered CDI, so low voltage could result in ignition trouble. A technician would have to verify that the charging system can keep up with whatever load is on the battery.

A fresh battery and working charging system should have no problem running the bike if you are only kickstarting it.

Have a call in tomorrow with some GasGas folks and my local dealer. May actually be getting traction. Going to drop my bike off at the dealer before work in the morning so it's there for the call.

possibly. my bike is at the shop now. I talked with some GasGas guys this AM about the whole situation. Basically the process that gasgas wants us to follow to fix things was not abided by. Not mine, my dealer, or gasgas's fault. So slightly feeling better about the scenario, but yes, my bike is still not fixed.. but they're working on it finally.

figured ignoring your first post would've clued you in, but guess not. No 6500 will not buy the bike. Its currently being held hostage while it gets 'fixed'. I get the process now, but pisses me off, as it's going to sit at the dealer in the corner when I could be riding it by simply using the kick start.. but whatever.. good thing I have other bikes to keep me busy otherwise i'd really be pissed off..
