I take it they didn't come with a kick starter originally?
Tank holds 2gal. The fuel bottle is a little insurance.
You’re correct; the 450’s don’t come with a kick start (250 models do).
That makes sense why I saw a kicker on some of the pics...Didn't realize the 250 only came with them.

Are you sure that isn't 300ml? 30ml is only 2 tablespoons....

You’re correct. It should read 30 ounces. Thanks for catching that.

Went to a show & swap meet in Goshen (Cycle Works). Stopped at the VFW in Marcellus, Michigan on the way back.
