FAQs

What material is the Apico Kick Start made from?

It is manufactured from forged 7075 Aero-grade aluminum for the kick arm and S45C steel for the base.

Which Montesa models is this kick start compatible with?

It is compatible with Montesa 4RT 250-260 models from 2005 to 2023 and Montesa 300/301RR models from 2016 to 2023.

Does it come with installation hardware?

The kick start is secured by an Allen key bolt, which should be included with the product.

How do I clean the kick start?

Clean with a soft cloth and mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners that can damage the anodized finish.

What is the purpose of the anodized finish?

The anodized finish provides protection against corrosion and wear, as well as contributing to the aesthetic appearance, often matching manufacturer colors.

Is this kick start suitable for other motorcycle brands?

No, this kick start is specifically designed and manufactured for the listed Montesa 4RT and RR models only.

Can I install this myself?

Basic installation can be done with the correct tools (like an Allen key). However, if you are not experienced with motorcycle mechanics, professional installation is recommended to ensure proper fitment and function.

Troubleshooting

Kick start feels loose or wobbly.

Check that the Allen key bolt securing the kick arm to the S45C steel base is tightened securely. Ensure the steel base is properly seated on the engine spline.

Difficulty engaging the kick start.

Ensure the kick start lever is clean and free from obstructions. Verify correct installation and alignment with the engine's starting mechanism.

Kick start mechanism sticks.

Clean the kick start lever and pivot point thoroughly. Lubricate lightly with a suitable motorcycle-grade lubricant if necessary, ensuring no lubricant gets onto the spline contact area.

Anodized finish is scratched or faded.

Avoid abrasive cleaning materials. Light scratches are normal wear. Fading can occur over time with UV exposure; protect the area from prolonged direct sunlight when possible.
