E-Start has it's positives and negatives I guess. I see the positives as it avoids valuable points being lost from a stubborn 4-stroke that won't kick over. Then I heard some guy the other day say "damn puss-eez* can't even kick start their bikes anymore" and he got me thinking...
E-start definitely makes the sport "easier". It can benefit riders who may not be in top shape to get moving again after a crash/tip over. It could be argued that E-start takes part of the penalty away from stalling or crashing...our former champions did not have them and it's clear our future champs have a new luxury with their new "easy" button.
What do you think? Stick to the traditional "gotta be able to start it to ride it" kick starter, or move forward with the "Easy" button?
