Ouch, I hate when that happens! The bike I had that liked to do that the
most was a 501 Maico I had set up for TT's. I'd never get near the starter
of that one without full motocross boots. (FUN bike though!)
One of the mechanics here races 250 GP & Superbike, I'll ask him about them.
Maybe there's something on the net you might be able to plagiarize.

Subject: starting motorcycles
Howdy, well I been doing it the old way, kickstarting a BSA
441 single, @ 12-1 compression, and last night it bit me AGAIN!!!
, saw some guys using a B&S gas engined thingy at SpeedWeek,
but never had the chance to really look one over, somebody wanna give me a
pic or two of one, prefer several angles so's I can copy it easily. and at
the same time, saw a guy trying to start the starter, and having no luck for
several minutes, so
maybe I should go with an electric starter, huh? 12v Mopar
starter and a good battery....? I have a geared down B&S horizontal shaft
older engine, used for winding up /down a boat lift, so maybe I can use it,
I dunno, just no longer interested in jumping my bike with the odd chance of
wrecking my foot/leg/composure.
