that's very new to me... a LC4 is one of the most easiest 600+ bike to start with a kickstarter... "well if done right" even without the decompression leaver or snapped cable.. done that for over a year before I had the pennies to get the free-wheel-gear repaired... even did a trip to Scandinavia that way with a non working free-wheel-gear.
absolute no problem starting the bike with the left foot sitting fully loaded on the bike, just find the dead centre, push the leaver ones more down halve way after that, let it come up again and give it a good kick and off you go.

Hi Spooks ...
Most kickstarters are on the RHS but as I said the LC4 is on the left - likewise they're back to front with the chain drive too, but they resolved all that with the EXC didn't they ...
Mine's a 400, and I junked the decomp system because it wasn't needed, and the arm on top of the valve inspection cover got in the way of my twin fan conversion - but it was always hard to start, and just plain awkward - to say nothing of wrecking the side-stand spring if the stand was deployed at the time ...
I changed the carb on mine from the sh!tty dellorto to an FCR 37 - it made a huge difference to how the bike ran - still hard to start though lol..
