Well, mid revs in any gear, and gas her hard and you'd best be awake 'cause she'll try and rip your arms off at the sockets and lift the front wheel in the process!
It can be a bit of a effort / technique to get it right, meaning you need the piston TDC and heave your left foot south. The chain's also on the wrong side - right - so many people seem to have an issue with kicking her over with their left. Getting the hang of it now, although re-starting her when she's warm is a problem at times.
If you opt for a bump start, get a mate to give it all he's got, select 2nd, dump the clutch and be gentle on the throttle once she's caught or the front end will point skyward!
