Sold the triumph and maico and got this turning up week tues from up north, very low mileage (2300km) !! 2000 TE 610E the main reason to me buying this is my ongoing right knee problem when kicking starting large machines, this one has the magic button biggrinbiggrin

Wanted to stick with my fav bike make without spending a fortune and lower maintenance schedules.

Nice bike, wrong choice if your looking for a reliable starting machine . The motors don't have enough power to turn over the engine unless uv got one of them major powerful expensive batteries. and even with that u must keep ontop with the valve clean fence because the slightest off will stop it from starting. And as for kicking it when the magic button isn't so magic, good luck. Nice bike, very very heavy mind. Not something you want to drop lol . I had the sm model of this same year bike. If you have any troubles with the button try pressing te button and kicking it whilst starter motor is turning. It's it easier and ever did any damage after needing to do it to mine everyday .

Yep, I like it, and if you need an expensive battery then have a look here, http://www.shieldbatteries.co.uk/motorcycle_batteries_enduro.html and let me know if you need one.

Nice wheels, just need to lose the wing mirrors and slap a Co2 on the back.

Ace.....made I proper chuckle did that Dan.......I do seem to recall seeing a Kick and push the button technique being used on a few Gas Gas's before.......

 

And Kerrys - push button, cuss, kick, push down road, push up road, sweat, cuss technique disbelief

 

Lath - Dougs been riding and owning Huskys since 1907 so I'm pretty sure he will cope wink

Hahaha I'm just saying with a dodgy knee that he said it hurts it will be hard to kick. And the 610 is a bugger of a bike. But then he might have no worries what do ever. And my husqy was a machine until I blew it up haha and as for the gasgas iv owned 2 and there awesome bikes.
