Happens to me all the time.

That too. But I have no problems riding the KTM when drunk. There's some
kind of security device though: Kick starter mounted on the left hand
side. When I left a party once, I complained about some freaks having
stolen my kickstart lever. Turned out that I was looking for it at the
wrong side. I called a cab that night. ;-)

Cheers,
Volker

my security device lat night was the gas is down
next to the shed the pre mix is in the shed
(with the hornets) and if you can mix up a fresh
batch of gas to go riding without tripping over
chainsaws or getting stung you're good to go

I used to start the husky before getting on the backwards beast
I would stand on it's left and use my right foot, sometimes
it worked kicking with the left while mounted but it just felt weird.
(plenty of kick power just the timing was odd)
as for the stolen the kicker issue you had, I could see you
sitting backwards on the bike after kick starting it and saying
someone stole the handle bars.... <grin>
