 Save the High Street - bathtub tom
>> I have a Royal Enfield Bullet 500cc Classic with electronic fuel injection and ignition.

I've a problem with old bikes trying to remember which ones have 'slack wire advance', so knowing which way to operate the advance/retard lever.
The last time I got kicked back was a Sunbeam S8. There's a Goldie I approach cautiously and treat with the utmost respect. Colleagues have a problem with a Raleigh moped. I like to let them build up a sweat trying to start it, by which time it's nicely primed before I can usually get it going with one prod of the pedals. There's a Rudge which the owner seems to be intimidated by (it is evil), he gives girly little prods at the kickstarter, presumably because he doesn't want it kicking back. There's a burly guy who can start it, I think it cowers when it sees him approaching and submits meakly.
