I can kick start my bike by hand too now

Peterwh
Changed my plugs today for Iridium plugs.  Definitely worth the extra cost for anyone that hasn't done so.  Starts well and runs very smoothly.  I don't think there's any more power but it feels like a different bike.  And yes, I can start it by hand on the kick starter.  When it was warm it just took a single compression stroke to start it.
