have you ever?
Bump started a 1200cc twin?!?! Jesus! I thought my heart would explode after the 4th try.
Lesson learned, take the damn key out or at least turn it off... |

Every time he dumped the clutch the rear wheel would lock. I asked him why he didn't try using 2nd gear, he informed me it was skidding in 3rd!!! |

Second and third. Second finally worked. First just locks up the rear.
Then again, second just locked up till I jumped on it full force and popped the clutch. |
