I ordered pocket covers for my 3124KS and had them on my front porch in two days. Now THAT's customer service!

Hahaha... Unless your real familiar with vintage British bikes, youll end up pushing it home. It takes a strict procedure to kick start. Took me 2 weeks of doing it wrong before I was enlightened by the PO.

Turn on gas petcock, flip on choke, hold the decompression lever in and turn the engine over several times with the kick start lever to prime it. Then, turn key on, get the engine to TDC, you know that by checking the amp meter in the gauge cluster, and you really know it because you can't kick through the stroke. Very, very hard. Ok, then use the decompress lever to move kick starter down a couple of inches which means you now over or past TDC. Then release kicker back up to top stroke again,twist throttle, and kick through, ending up with your foot completely beneath the foot peg. May take a couple of attempts. LOL. Run with choke on till warm and lever it off. Gear selector is on the right side, one up and three down configuration. Rear brake lever is on the left. Gets into a nice groove at 48-50mph. Love it...

That's the best anti-theft system I've ever heard of. Even after you explained it, I still couldn't get it started!
