Crozier Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Hi Having problems starting the bike. It was working fine till one day I tried starting it and the kick starter goes down really easy and not enough to make the bike turn over. Any ideas?

It turns over too easily. I kick it to start it bit there feels like there is no compression. How could that happen from just sitting in the garage for a week?
