I found a couple of them for $1,200.00 in new shape.I bought mine much cheaper but had to rebuild the engine.When it was stock cc's it wasn't too bad to start,just put your knee on the seat & kick hard!

I had one for about 3 years. Hard to start when warmed up, hard to start cold. Sometimes I'd kick it so much I'd give up and get pull started. Liked the power, ride and handling for a 3 wheel. One in cherry condition out here will go for $1800.

When I had mine if you tried to kick it in a hurry it would sprain your ankle. But their is a trick, just put your wieght of your leg on the kick-start and let it go passed the compression stoke. Then release and give it a good kick and WALLA!! starts first kick every time. I bought my (86)in good condition for $1500 and sold it a year later for $1800. I wish I had it back sometimes[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

I had one for about 3 yrs. Mine started fine cold, hot was a different story. I kicked the heck out of it when it was hot. Finally figured out a system, I had to hold the throttle partly open for 3-4 kicks, then close the throttle and gave it a good kick (bigisbetter method) and it would usually start. BE CAREFUL when kicking w/open throttle. That is when it can hurt your shin real good.

I have had one for quite a while. I never found mine hard to start, hot or cold. I guess it just depends on the condition and timing of the 350x. As far as the price goes, for one that is in good condition, you will probably pay about $1,800.00. It all depends on how good of condition it is in, and how much the owner has in it. Mine for example is for sale, and I have about $4,400.00 in it. I am almost finished with a complete ground up restoration of it. The frame, swing arm, and axel have all been sanded and repainted, and everything else is brand new! I also had the engine rebuilt with a Powroll 368cc big bore kit, 10:1 compression, new high lift cam, and the works. New carb, new SuperTrap exhaust,...like I said, new everything. Anyway, the point that I am making is, for one in good condition $1,800.00, one in brand new perfect condition with high quality high horse power mods, $3,000.00 OBO. So you have to decide what you want, good shape/nice, or incredible, and everything new. Hope this helps.

I owned a 350X (hence the name) for a while.
Mine started perfectly every time, hot or cold.
It was such a great bike.
It was in mint, near showroom condition and she sold for 1700 VERY quickly.
She even had the original tool wrap, with the ORIGINAL tools still inside.
I miss her badly.
