canada280i Posted March 29, 2014 Report Share Posted March 29, 2014 (edited) Hi ric, this is the kit on the 2014 models that is now fitted as standard, it is ossas version of the 9v version we are all using and uses only 1 kill switch to both start the bike, and stop it, in place of the two switches we use with the 9 v version It is essentially the same thing using a rechargeable 1.2 v battery stepped up to 10 v when the kill switch is pressed top recharge the electronics, just like the 9 v kit does when you press and hold the switch. Ossa gave just packaged it into one unit and wired it so that the Battery gets recharged and then stepped up to 10 v Ps, if you are using a regular alkaline 9 v battery I cannot stress enough how much of a difference I think a high power battery makes in the starting, technique is also a big part of it which Xavi speaks to in the ossa document Edited March 30, 2014 by canada280i Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lotus54 Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 Great info on the new easy start! My 2014 starts easily, unless I give it a half hearted kick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsp Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 ordered my ES9v kit today from Birketts, you can also send them your capacitor and he wires in his own version that includes a kill switch to operate from the handle bars. I looked at the info on the start assist and it was a bit of a chew on for me to do in the garage jsp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsp Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 ric h - no your shouldnt have bought a sherco !!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsp Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 Right I've fitted the easy start with the micro Switch at the kick start, but it seems to just be Running the fuel pump and flooding it, so I've taken That off and fitted a kill switch on the handle bars, How long do you need to hold it down before you Start it ?

canada280i Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 I hold mine down while kicking and let it go when it fires up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
