He also mentions earlier in the page that the pin that holds the lever onto the shaft could be installed wrong.

Re: stroke 6 kickstarter lever.
On my RS, I have used the kick start just one time in the years and miles. To be honest, it takes a bit of finagling and such to use it properly but the one time I did use it, I got the bike started. (FYI, starter relay conked out in a parking lot of a restaurant I was at, level lot and I couldn't mange to push and jump/bump start it like I have done in the past with the RT. Those little bitty handle bars are kind of a pain at low speeds or in parking lots.)
I joke with the guys at the Beemer Barn, if I ever buy a /2, someone will have to show me the ropes on proper use or, I will do an engine conversion. St.
