    Oh yes, I can confirm that! When my 'little' 500 Gilera had a flat battery I had to kickstart her-what a little bitch.
 Back in the 60's-before most of you were born-I had a BSA  DBD34 500 Goldstar-it's party trick used to be to chuck you over the handlebars if you didn't get the starting procedure right.........
