My 78 XS11E came with a "emergency" kickstarter lever stashed behind the engine (as do all of them I believe). When my bike is hot it is hard to start with the electric, but starts just fine with one or two kicks. The problem is, the factory lever is rigid and has to be stashed away to ride the bike. Being an old timer, I actually prefer the kick over the button anyway.
My question is, does anyone know if the splines on the kickstart shaft are a somewhat standard size and if a folding type lever off of another model (such as xs650, etc) may fit? What models should I look for?
Thanks
