Paul we started one at five, a 50cc Honda automatic. For the first several rides I placed it first and removed the gear shift lever so that the machine was pretty much all done at 5-6 mph. Hope this helps.

Hey Brian, Cool picture. Sometime I'm going to go through the  pictures my Mom used to take of my brother and I. I'll bet there is one there similar to yours. But without the fancy kick starter. Bet I could remove the heat shrowd and re-do the coil spring with my eyes closed back then, do to breaking the rope so many times.
