Don't Griz's come with a back-up recoil on them? If not I'm sure they could add one.

I know that it has a pull starter.........my question is are you able to pull start it???

My three buddies can not pull start their Grizzlies because of the compression and you nearly rip your arm off trying.

What are other Grizzly owners experience?

Yes, I am able to pull start my grizzly. I usually pull the ripcord out a bit, stop and then pull the rest of the way to relieve some of the compression...

If your grizzly has a hard time turning over with the electric start, then it obviously makes it much more difficult to pull start it...

If it has a hard time turning over... check all of the basics... and then check the valves... they were a lil tight on my `02 griz... and it was making it hard to start in the cold...

yeah there is a method of pulling it. Like Hebs said pull it out once a little bit. It will stop about 6 inches out. The let it back in then pull it hard. It always works. Its still not easy thought. If you think a grizzlys hard to pull start try to pull start a honda rincon.
