Electric Start

But it never cranks with the electric start anymore. Any ideas?

It's a 2014 Kymco Agility 125 (less than 6,000km on the bike)


Thanks!

I don't feel your pain. I have a 2006 Sportster 1200 w/ a DMC Trike Kit. I would LOVE to have a kickstart! I only have an electric start. In NH , every bike that I had , had only a kickstarter. I've been riding since I was 15 (73 now) & I always managed to get a bike home as long as I had a kickstarter. With an electric starter ,you're out of luck if your battery is dead! Irish

Yes, the kickstart is great in those situations. But, I would like to resolve this issue and have my electric start functioning again. Any advice is greatly appreciated.


Thanks
