Default Okay, the battery is dead... What now

I have an bf 750- Not a chance in hell a person can pull start one if its below 0 degrees outside. I know for a fact that the rope or handle will break WAY before the motor will even start to pop, then a person will end up walking out for miles cursing the bike. Buy a good battery and dont depend on the pull starter unless its warm out.

The 700 KQ has a recoil on it.... But no normal human can pull it, so what good does that do?</end quote></div>



My brother & I both have '07 KQ700's and have used the pull start. It IS possible to do.........................</end quote></div>


I suppose if it was a matter of spending the night in the wilderness or driving out.... I'd muster the strength by standing with both feet on the quad and pulling with both hands. Next time I see the quad I'm going to try it. Not sure when that will be since everybody has the flu around here and I'm not all that anxious to catch it.

It'll definatly take both hands........just make sure to pull it slowly to get the starter engaged, then give it a good yank. You'll see that it can be done. May take a 2nd or 3rd pull, but you WILL DO IT!
