I'm a nurse, and I have to close my eyes until after I have to scroll past that picture.

I feel sorry for that guy. The picture just makes my skin crawl....ewwwwww.

AHA! I knew the peg looked familiar. 426 by chance? They had a short kick starter that liked to throw your foot off.

I had a similar experience at Sand Lake my first time out. I was trying to kick start a honda fat cat back at camp for someone. The kick starter was completely tweaked at my foot slipped right off and my shin slid against the peg. It took a sliver of skin 4 inches long right off the bone. I couldn't walk the rest of the day, and it took about 3 months to fully heal. I need to find the pictures.

Thats the nice thing about riding Honda ATVs... They have a forward kick-start. Worst you'll get is maybe a bruise if you fall off of it. That sliver of skin coming off...nasteh.
