Looking to purchase kick start mod and wondering if you could still keep the electric start and battery. Will timing effect bike performance with timing change (cam mod). Any help will be greatrly appreciated.

not too sure about the cam mod, i havent did it yet...

you can still have the battery after you put the kick on, but if you take the battery off, i think you have to take the fan off also...

I, personally, feel the kick starter should replace the e-starter. If you're not adding the kick starter to loose the weight of the e-starter, then you must feel your ATV needs a backup to the electric start.

Just about every electric start ATV on the planet doesn't have a kick start backup and I don't see why the YFZ450 should be regarded any differently. Just to name a few of the sport ATVs that can't have a kick starter: Warrior, Raptor, 300ex, 400ex, KXF400, LTz400.
