XS1100 XS11 XS 1100 STANDARD NEW folding kickstart lever kicker 78-79 Heavy Duty

Description

Functional,  fold-in kickstart lever for XS11 Standard models.
Heavy duty, with a wider swing clearance than my economy version.
This is for 19mm Yamaha splined kickstart shaft
...may fit other models!
the actual part where you put your foot (where the rubber is) is 3/12" long
Just The long part is 8" long
Total length is approx 11" long which is from the bottom of the clamp to the top of the kick lever.
For the economy version, see ebay:
221157579753
These are BRAND NEW!
ONLY Fits '
78 - '79
XS1100
STANDARD's
(with an external kicker shaft).
(A customer had difficulty fitting this to his "SPECIAL" model,
~so i actually recommend the Economy version for the Specials.)
PLEASE NOTE: Even with the extra clearance this kicker provides,
some "massaging" may be required on your bike
.
Please be prepared to possibly do
some clearancing at the foot/brake mount.
An XS enthusiast submitted:
NOTE: Some European/Australian early '78 standard models had higher,
more rear set foot pegs that sit just behind the kickstart spline.
The kickstart you have pictured will not fit these models,
as the kickstart lever pivot mechanism hits the footpeg
very early into its rotation.
I own such a '78 model, and quite a bit of work is required
to get any kicker to work on these.
(note that the Blue XS in the pictures below is
a US late '78, and does not have this problem)
and please read the FAQ's below.
(scroll all the way down)
thanks!
you can leave this permanently attached, unlike the stock, spare kicker pedal.
this is for  19mm Yamaha
splined kickstart shaft
and may fit other models!
FAQ's:
Q:
Hey guys just recently purchased your xs11 kick start pedal.   Wondering if you have had any problems starting the bike this way. I own a 79 xs11 standard.
Any tips?
A:
hi, what is the exact problem?  the biggest problem i have seen is people trying to put it on a 80-81 model with no kick start shaft!
or people who aren't physically capable of kick starting a big bike.
There are many you tube videos showing you how to properly kick-start a motorcycle.
(this next question was regarding the economy unit)
Q:      so I shouldn't buy your kick start pedal for my 79 xs1100 if I plan on actually ever using it?
A:
Hi!
some people have trouble with the clearance of the lever and brake arm at full swing with the economy version, this heavy duty unit is meant to help fix that issue.
in your case with the economy version, you can either NOT kick it all the way past the brake arm, or make appropriate changes-
but if you don't mind making slight modifications (if your model is one that is affected, some models are not...),
then you can make any necessary modifications, and you will be satisfied.
Some people don't even own a screwdriver, let alone a tool kit, or have never even changed a spark plug, so i have to make that disclaimer.
Some people can't kick-start a 125cc bike either :-) - (let alone an XS11 beast.)
If you are able to use the non-folding kickstarter that came with the bike,
then you should be able to do it.
i have sold over 60 units, -26 kickers this year alone, and installed 10 on my bikes and customer bikes,
and have had one person complain that he was not able to kick his bike to life, and one persons bike that had
a damaged the internal spring, so that the kicker would not retract, -so i have to make the disclaimer.
So, you see, I can't guarantee a "no modification" fitment, or promise that everyone will even be able to kickstart an 1100cc bike, that's all.
I'm just trying to be completely honest and up front regarding an aftermarket part.
Which is how i would want to be treated if i was considering the purchase of a non-stock part.
Most of the time it doesn't happen that way in the custom parts world, and we are left with a part that doesn't fit as hoped,
and modifications have to be made.
It is always "buyer beware" when getting custom parts.- i am doing my best to keep my customer AWARE of what he is getting into.
If i know that modifications may be needed, up front, i get a lot less frustrated :-)
you may have heard the term "UNIVERSAL FIT" ?
fellow customizers laugh when we see that, knowing that what it really means is: "FITS NOTHING IN THE UNIVERSE",.... or fits nothing universally.... lol
