Have a 06 kdx200 that I went to start tonight and after the second kick the kick starter would not engage. Tried putting bike in gear and rocking back and forth but didnt help. Is there any danger in riding the way it is and just bump starting. Planned a ride for tomorrow a month ago and I dont get to ride often. Thanks for any suggestions.

No danger.... just bump it.
I would fix it after your ride though.... that would suck.

Nice name! Probably just a ratchet gear, and common on these models...easy fix.
