Thinking of getting a 01 cr 500 or a Berg 570... What's the 500's like for starting when dumped over?? I like how I could rebuild the 500 basically in the back of my truck if needed but I also like how the Berg has that nice little button to start it.. Any input is appreciated.
500's start just fine (if your jetting is correct), you just have to know how. You don't just kick away like a small 2stroke (especially if you are a lighter person such as myself). Bump it up against compression, bring the kickstarter all the way back to the top, and put your whole body weight into it.
