xs1100 kickstarter

[motormouse]

Awhile back i seen a post that said i could use a xs750 or xs850 kickstarter on my 1979 xs1100sf and can`t get the bolt in.
The regular shaft has a groove in it for the bolt.
If i grind a groove in it won`t it weaken the shaft and i don`t realy want to grind a groove.
Does anybody have a fix.
THANK YOU

Use a thinner bolt with a nut on the end.
