dazzagreener Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 Hello. Iv recently just bought a 2010 evo. I was just stripping it down to give everything a quick once over and notice a screw that is under the exhaust near the kickstart. The screw was undone slightly so I thought I better do it up but this stops the kickstart from returning to its up right position. The kickstart will only return to the upright position if I undo it about half a turn. Can someone tell me what is stopping me from doing it up tight. Or maybe a way to set it up.

0007 Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 There's nothing there to affect the return of the kick start, it's internal Can you post a pic or two? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazzagreener Posted January 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 There is mate. I will try and take a picture if I can. It looks like a smaller oil filler cap!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lineaway Posted January 18, 2014 Report Share Posted January 18, 2014 Sounds more like it was removed and put back in. Probably need to pull off the primary case and reset the kick start shaft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lineaway Posted January 20, 2014 Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 (edited) It`s the stop for the kick start shaft, gave you the diagram. It is supposed to be tight. Once removed it releases the spring tension usually or shaft is displaced. Been that way since the first Beta`s. It`s obvious if you ever completely stripped a motor.
