Its quit simple just start it like you start youre maxi ... a non kickstart one... some ppl use a drilling machine on the nut of the flying wheel and simply lift te leaver up

Rixen,

please be carefull. I start my bike with a drillingmachine (battery screwdriver), but made I kind of freewheel construction to be sure that the engine is not able to drive the drillingmachine. The first time I tried to start without freewheel, the flywheel nut came off when the engine started. An engine running at 2000 rpm in front of your face with a loose flywheel is not funny.

I push the minibike till it starts... Not a easy job with the high compression but it still worked everytime.

I think Daans didn't read your first post, were you say that you have a kickstart moped.

OOOOh i get it... you have not sayd you have a kickstart mini.

I know that Bouke has also a kickstart bike. maybe he knows the answer.

You can start it by running and pulling al little lever on the handlebars.
This is the way it works on an original Puch with no kickstarter.
