My 21 year old daughter has been on me to get her motorcycle license. I told her you have to learn to ride first lol. She's been putting in some time on a Honda crf 80.

Congrats to the young lady and the proud papa !!!!!

Way to go. No better start than dirt bike.

That's the way I learned. She'll have a blast!

She does pretty well with balance and clutch feel. She hasnt mastered the kick start yet tho.

Let her find the way it wants to start. Find it's idiosyncrasy. Can't kick an old HD with one kick, you haven't found what it wants.

Buddy sold a T140 with electronic ign. So the trick to this one was a pushdown on the plunger till it spilled out the hole(s). Would just start then stopped. That was one kick. Press the plunger again, it lit right off... one kick.
200cc Honda 3-wheelier... Had to find past compression, kick it and lit off... same deal on any of the 200cc's I worked on.

I could find its idio on that 80 she has. I'd first find comp TDC, go past it just ever so little, then hard kick it so you have enough spin so as not to meet a backfire spinning backward, the kicker comes back up and breaks/bruises an ankle.

Next would be with full choke or no choke when cold starting. Hot is should kick right over with a hardy pushdown. No throttle opening. Open if it lights off.

then hard kick it so you have enough spin so as not to meet a backfire spinning backward, the kicker comes back up and breaks/bruises an ankle.

That's my only concern with a girl kick starting a bike. I was pretty young when I had a kick start bike and it did kick back and whack me in the calf a couple times...more likely when it was hot. It was a small bike and it still hurt like hell. You can say I have my prejudices and I will very much agree with you when it comes to differences between men and women. ...although I think highly of anyone who learns what the other gender is almost always better at. Pain isn't one of them, contrary to popular belief. I don't throw a boy in to be outmatched either but girls are just a little different level. We all need to know our limitations.
