Well don't go to the M8 forum asking for advice on push starting. Those guys are too busy arguing over warranties, slip-ons and oil threads to give any help.

I'm getting to old to push anything, but I've watched guys try to push start higher compression bikes in low gear, not very successful usually.

Day earlier, a guy with a 2013 RG with custom everything you can imagine, stereo, bars, seats, heated grips, the whole 9 yards with 14k miles got $15,000 trade in for the same bike I got.

tells you, anything aftermarket you put on your bike is at your own risk and ain't worth spit when it comes to selling it. That's on you.
