DO NOT EVER KICK START..
a CR250 Honda in short pants...
or in flip flops..it's just stupid.
The 1st pic was a test starting...carb reeds were frigged up, the 2nd, the thing started right up but that kick lever bites like a great white shark. Took 2 hrs to stop bleeding. Way to much blood in my beer system.

And people think I'm silly for only wear steel toe boots and heavyweight work pants-
It didn't help when my steam cleaner decided to use my leg to get out of the moving van instead of the ramp. I still have a dent from that, two years ago.

push starting it might not work... we found out on a cr500 both lessens in one day... not a good idea to try and kick start it in shorts, and to try and compression start it...
(push starting was only a bad idea cause it involved to much work accomplishing nothing but skiddin the rear tire...)

There's the issue of pushing it up the hill to push it off in the first place-
And Carl, you need to learn how much ankle support you can get from lightweight 8" tall boots. It's quite nice really.

Dang, Carl!!!!!!!!
Dr. 00BOR checking in.
Put some Neosporine (sp??) and a couple of butterfly bandages on that foot! Some Neosporine (sp??) on that leg wouldn't hurt, either.
Then, lubricate the injuries from within with large quantities of Busch!
Repeat as needed.
(Look at it this way. . . beer contains alcohol. Alcohol kills bacteria. Consider it as drinking for medicinal purposes!)

My old Husky 390 has been in pieces in the attic for years. That thing was lethal to try to kick start, half the time it would kick back and just about break my leg. Definitely uncomfortable on the sole of the foot...!
