Yeah, your kick start thing hit close to home.
Where I live, it was in the 20's today. Not extremely cold, but I had FOUR different things all go kaput, as if it were negative 20.
It's like everything got spoiled and couldn't cope.
Sounds like you've got a good handle on the bike. 10 shots on the pump 'should' have flooded it. I always think of Jimmy Stewart in "Flight of the Pheonix" when I get to that point.
As for kick starts, my bad leg left me kissing motorcycles goodbye a long time ago. Get some good miles in for me!
