1. Put the bike in second gear. This will help to reduce the engine's compression and make it easier to start.
2. Find a hill or slope that is at least 10 feet long. This will give you enough room to build up enough speed to start the bike.
3. Have a friend help you push the bike up the hill. Once you are at the top, let go of the bike and run alongside it.
4. As the bike rolls down the hill, jump on it and let out the clutch. The engine should start and the bike will begin to move forward.
_Here are some additional tips for push starting a Honda Shadow:_
- Make sure the bike is in neutral before you start pushing it. This will help to prevent the bike from lurching forward and causing you to lose your balance.
- If you are having trouble starting the bike, you can try rocking it back and forth. This will help to loosen up the engine and make it easier to start.
- Be careful not to let the bike get too much speed. If the bike is going too fast, you may not be able to control it.
_Push starting a Honda Shadow is a relatively simple process, but it can be dangerous if you are not careful._ Follow these tips to help ensure that you start your bike safely and without incident.
