auto decompression

Does anyone know if my 1990 xt600e has a auto decompression system when starting the bike?

Thanks
Mike.

E-start only

Therefore, no automatic decompression.

Hi there, have you bought the bike new/unmoded or used with mods?

If someone has fitted a kickstart on your 90' XT600E before you bought it they could've put the autodecompression unit as well..


Have fun!

No kickstarter, I just wasn't sure if it had it or not with the electric start to ease the burden on the starting system.

Thanks,

Mike.
