I grew up riding dirt bikes and used these tricks all the time. As an adult, my Yamaha mt09 (850 triple cylinder) had a dead battery and I thought "no biggie, I'll bump start it. time to put that dirt bike knowledge to good use". I learned it's WAY harder to push start a bigger engine than the dirt bikes I was used to. After 30 minutes of pushing a 400+ lbs bike up and down a hill without any success I decided to go buy a trickle charger lol. I think all my neighbors enjoyed watching me run around though
I think that most of the problem with newer, bigger bikes is the fuel pumps and injection and ecus that need power to work. My 1998 FZS600 is pretty easy to bump start, just have it in 2nd and drop the clutch, jumping on the seat if more traction is needed.
One tip I realised far too late - Also use the electric starter at the same time as bumping. Even if the battery is so dead it won't turn over the engine by itself, every little helps.
Had to push start my Yamaha vmax, 1200cc v4, in my very flat work parking lot. Dirtbikes are much easier
For bigger bikes, you really need someone to push you.
😊
that YZ Freight Train Kit is Badass
thank you so much, a month ago my 2003 crf230f's battery disconnected and it only has eletrice start and because of this video i was able to get it started on my first ever try. (real life and time saver)
Two things I want to add,
First, second is always better. I had an old cruiser that I was bump starting and put it in first and it broke the gear.
Second, when doing the “tug” I have always had the back person step on the strap instead of hooking it to their peg. When they want to release they just let go. I’ve seen too many people eat dirt because the person in front kept going
this intro has me crying
I’m so glad I just happened to stumble on the channel, I’m for sure watching every vid from now on
Here before this video goes viral. Great video BeRAD!
It never went viral
I have a ktm 300 2stroke 2017 and it won't start its a electric start and no power can anyone tell me what's wrong pls.thanx
I am not joking, I am sitting in a local forest watching this as it won’t really bump my bike in 1st gear until I realised 2 gear is an easier way to start. I’m gonna go home now but thanks for helping me when my kick stabs snaps.
This is something I’ve been wondering about for a long time but never gotten around to find out: glad it popped up in my feed!
Back in the early 90's, at a little private track about 1/2hr south of Grand Rapids, Front end high on a 3rd gear, uphill, blind 40 foot double. I pulled in the clutch to hit the rear brake at the apex of the arc, and stalled the motor while 20 feet in the air. Wind blowing through my helmet sounded so soothing. Bumped started it on the back side of the landing jump, and rode away. I love happy endings. :)
Nobody really cares!
That’s wicked
I always drill through the the head of my kickstarter bolt and safety wire the bolt. I learned that I should do this the hard way.
Thank you for this. It was needed today, saved a long walk home in rain
Yupp done them all. Here's an unorthodox method for ya, two bike stands two bikes rear to rear tire touching start bike #1 and get both rear tires spinning pop the clutch in second and wallah, bike # 2 is running. Hopefully
“Will you still take me to dinner tho” 😂😂😂
He gave me a 4 course meal if you know what I mean 😜
@@BeRAD lol 😂 wish I could go riding now with my bro’s can’t find a decent bike for a decent price mofos up in upstate ny want 3200 for a 25yr old yz125 😂
@@neo1629 $3100 for my 250 made 2007. Good deal but needed $500 in parts but that’s usually what happens anyways
@@Jack-jd6tj yea
@@neo1629 try going out of state and finding a bike, better prices around. But coif is making everything very very expensive so be aware of that
I've been doing these moves for years, I do it a bit different, but it still works. Hopefully this way will be easier.
Edit: I tried it the next day and my bike started up so much faster this time. Thanks so much.
Great video! Quality is amazing!
Awesome vid man. Literally helped me out so much.
Friend bump started my GT80 in reverse, it worked, rode it around in reverse, and also broke the gear case. He also fixed it, was a good mechanic, learned a lot from him. Didn't mind so much that he wrecked my Yamaha.
Instead of hooking the strap to the towed bike, wrap it around the foot peg and step on it. All you have to do is lift your foot if things get sketchy.
That's a great tip! Thanks :)
Great idea!
Your videos are great they helped me a lot!
I love your videos man keep up the good work
Thank you, I was on my 140G and my battery died. (doesnt have kickstart) this video literally saved me
you made this look so easy, thanks for the wicked video
Love watching your videos Berad. I know this question has nothing to do with this video, but I was wondering if you have specific settings with your suspension setup for technical single track riding. I have a 2019 yz 250x. Thanks.
Fun stops when you try to do that on a heavy bike like CRF1000 or similar.
Great video!
Great video man!
I actually learned somthing! Iv done all of these before except the swinger which is Really handy
bump start in reverse is more fun
fax
Does it run backwards Then?
Tried it on my 50 cc moped, it backfired really loud an ran backwards like 5 meters and then it stalled
You need too have your spark at the right timing but it can run in reverse
@@jan6925 yes.. but you destroy your engine
Rode for 25+ years (even had a YZ) and did many a bump start but never thought of doing a pusher or a tug!!
Good information great job!
Thanks for the video, Tom Keen from Blacklist!
Hahahaha! Love your sense of humor you put in your vids so great!!! Awsome content too!
I learned something about the tow tug 👍🏻
not sure why im watching this when i just bump started my bike like 2 hours ago but still very high video👍
Thanks for teaching us somthing which we all already knew
Thanks for watching a video about something you clearly already knew.
Hey man, what's your premix ratio, and what oil do you use?
Nothing like a good tug after a hard day
Best tutorial in the universe
Did you take him to dinner? Or do we find out in the sequel?
Hey BeRad awesome video but does this work on quads?
"You want me to give you a tug." 😂
The comedy in this film is great!
Thank you so much
Hey BeRad, What cc is your YZ? awesome video man!
This dude is goofy. He had me laughing through the whole demonstration. Great video
Excellent words of wisdom Sr. Any thoughts on some shenanigans videos?. Missing the good ol days. How's Ms. Speesknees doing?
IT WORKS SO WELL!!!!
BeRad, your videos are great! Edited well, funny, useful and informative. Keep it up and the world is your oyster.
Been doing this since I was a little kid and never had to do the butt thing. But now I understand why they do it during MotoGp sessions
are you going to give your thoughts on beta 125RR, 200RR,250RR, 300RR BeRad
Can you do this with a recluse clutch installed??
Hi we need release clutch right then it will start right do we need downshift right
Do you need to rev it when you let go of the clutch
I'm stuck on the top of a ski mountain in NY right now. Really rough trails. I took a unexpected jump and my chain loosened and Brooke my casings and it broke my Stator connection. I have my chain and everything back on. But my Stator is broken. Can I bumpstart like this without a Stator?? Also I have no breaks so if it doesn't work and I can't put it into first it might be bad....
Sandy wash or valley? Docking works good but takes some practice. Rear tire to rear tire either on rock or sideways on kick stand. Bad starter on ride had to do it several times.
Ah. Needed this when I failed all weekend with a broken stator. Made good content tho
Good meeting you today homie! (This is Lee Cunningham, we met at Ryan Well's van, haha...)
Hey dude!! Good to meet you too!
Can you do one without gears coz I have that but don’t know how to do that
Great video 😂
What is the dirt bike you have in the video?
That’s funny cause I got the new yz250 and on the second ride the kickstart was literally almost off, looked down and the bolt was right there in the dirt lol 😂🤦🏽♂️
Hey I love the bike
Do you run a flywheel weight, on the 250
Hol' up how did u do the scene with Derek on the back
Looks like same bike as mine bud! 2021 YZ 250. 2 Stroke. I love it man it shreds.
JUNK!!!!! YZ 125 is the Shih Zoo!!!! It will kick ur AZZ!!!!
I drove to work for a couple of weeks with a broken starter relay on a 200kg 600cc twin.
There were no slopes near my work place.... That time i could have used a kicker lever
Prophet of BErap!!
G84 4 LIFE😁
Me on my 1993 80cc Honda that only needs one kick unless you take it through a puddle. So what’s the normal speed for one of those because I think mine is suped up because it can do at least 40 I try to take it faster but ain’t got much room for that
You can also put in gear and pull in the clutch
What if you have a pit bike or no clutch
what do you do iv you have no clutch
and have 1 gear
Can you make a package for like a 110cc pit bike please
Can any of these tricks be done on an Automatic bike?
The battery in my friends died and we had to bump start it. My buddy let the clutch go not suddenly, but he tried to slip it. We made a couple of tries untik I realised but he is doing!
Bru your videos are CLASSIC.
Would love to order the Freight Train kit, but based in South Africa
I ship worldwide! I’ve sent plenty of product to SA
@@BeRAD I'll need to make a plan then Dude.
How much would shipping be?
.
Thing is, as freaking awesome as thay freight train package is, it's honestly half the value of what I paid for my 2011 yz250
Believe it or not, that's how I've always started my 2 stroke moped.
Funny never knew it had a name.
this is great
But I have a Tao Tao dB 24 semi auto so I can shift with no clutch can I still do this
Depending on what I find. I’m looking for a kx,cr, or yz 125. But depending on what I find for the cheapest, I’m definitely buying some parts from BeRAD. If I get a yz I might get the hole package, the head,reeds,carb and air filter.
Easier way is to put your bike In neutral, this will make it easier to push the bike if you have to run with it or you don’t have a big hill, Once the bike is in neutral and is rolling down the hill hold the clutch in and shift to 1( if you don’t have a lot of speed, but harder to start), and 2( if you have a decent bit of speed) once in desired gear, before you dump the clutch you want to jump on your bike and a second before land on your seat. dump the clutch. ( once you hear the bike start it will be going slow so pull in the clutch fast.
Perhaps I went over that in the last 4 minutes of the video that you didn’t watch 😂
@@BeRAD 😅😅
@@BeRAD that could have been a possibility. But I included a hill thus meaning I described a different method 😁
I tried this with my SYM 110 and it worked. . .
This trick is for dirt bike,I tried it with my normal bike,
It worked.
This guy is amazing 😂😂😂
Yz the best💪🔥
raising the rear of the bike and wrapping a strap around the rear tyre and pull to start....as long as someone has the clutch in and in 2nd gear is another option with the strap👍
Must be the best tutorial, thanks for this guys 🤣
People here that no how to bump start but r here anyways 👉🏻👉🏻
Know*
@@baby-joker9519 no
@@baby-joker9519 jk
Lol true
Seems like the clutch plates never fully release on the two strokes I have ridden. Pushing in gear, even with clutch lever pulled, is a no go.
Totally normal!
@@BeRAD Thanks for the reply! I enjoyed watching your videos so much that I went out and bought a new yz125x for my gf and a new yz250x for myself. You should get a commission from Yamaha! Now if only I could afford a new Lektron, etc.
Keep up the good work and don't hurt yourself!
So basically I put it on 2nd gear when trying to start it ?
Yes. Unless your bike is geared so low that 3rd gear is better.
wish my 250 4 stroke started that easy with “the pusher”
what about rear wheel on rear wheel starting
if both bikes have a kickstand (with no ignition cut off switch) or you have terrain to get both rear wheels in the air touching each other spin up with the running bike and then let then clutch in on the running and clutch out on other bike
or using the mentioned strap as a pull starter like on a lawnmower
wrap the strap around the rear but dont attach it anywhere with your pull line going out at the bottom
on most bikes get it in 2nd and just pull on the strap
Yup those would be a couple other ways as well!
Getting a pit bike soon I’m well excited
I’ve done the push method so much easy to miss the peg and drop the bike on myself the first time or two🤣🤣
The first bike I had when I was 10 had a stripped kick starter shaft. So I had to push start it to start it. I got very good at it but I had no choice at the time🤷🏻♂️
Thats awesome
Do you have a 2strok or 4storsok
Was in tight Sandy trails yesterday without a strap. Propped my bike on a log and my dads bike leaned on his kickstand. Put the rear tires together and I dropped the clutch in 4th and it fired right up
Thank you
🇮🇳🙏
holy shit that is really helpful only if I watched this before Sunday because I was riding with my neighbor and I stalled and somehow flooded it we left it for 2 hours which is really weird because you usually wait for 20-5 minutes after an hour of trying it finally started and we tried roll starting it down a hill but it would not start but imma make a sticker and put it on my bike
#beRAD is the best
Hey Brad it was nice to meet you. I was the kid with ty today
Hey man!! Great to meet you too! Get the bike out next time and come ride!
@@BeRAD ok
i didnt know some people didnt know about bumps starts i literally kill it with the clutch and drop it again when i get to the end of the hill
Don't know why i am watching this. I've been bump starting for ever (40 years+)
Lol
bruh i did this at my friends house and didn't understand it. i was on one of his old bikes and couldnt kickstart on the hill so he just said to sit and accelerate. the bike turned on and i had no idea how until i found this vid 👍🏿
