I was going to swap kickers from my 2005 WR450 to my 2011 GG and vis a versa. Are those years compatible?

Don't know pal , would be good to know though as there seem to be more kickers available for the 4 bangers

Desert Gasser just emailed me to say that the 450 4T kickers don't fit. Just the YZ 2T kickers will work.

Ok pal , thanks for the reply

The Yamaha 450 kickstarts don't fit due to bigger diameter splines.

I installed a 2007 YZ250F kickstarter on my 2006 EC300 with a little filing on lower fwd edge to avoid interference with clutch cover.

It is nicer than the YZ250 2T kicker,

I was watching this thread after having torn my boot to shreds with the stock kicker.

Picked up a 2010 YZ250F kickstarter and it bolted up; no filing necessary on mine (I have an 03 EC250).

Eliminated footpeg bashing and made it significantly easier to start (not that it was difficult before but now it requires little more than a soft push). This thing gets my approval big time!

Thanks , that's good to know , I ended up getting another gas gas one as I had an order coming from Spain and they are much cheaper there , ill be getting a Yamaha one though in the near future .

YZ250 are the ones that fit

FYI - EBay is always a great place to find these where bikes have been parted out...

Agreed! I got my 250f kickstarter for $55 shipped on ebay.

are the yz250 kickstarters of higher quality than the ones from GasGas?
I wear down a GG kickstarter within a year and I'm tired of it.
If so, I'll try one from Yamaha

 

[djroggen]

They are tough. Worth the money.

Guys.. would YZ250F 2011 kickstar fit my EC 250 2008?? I can not find YZ 250 kickstarter on ebay.. I am from Slovakia, so shipping from US is more expensive than kickstarter...

Possibly... I borrowed one from a friends '06 YZ250F and it worked fine. The shape is a little different than the YZ version that I ended up buying, but it did work, the splines are the same. Check the part number of the 2011 against a 2006, if they're the same, then it should fit.
