I own a 70s vintage Moto Guzzi police motorcycle with a semi-automatic 
transmission.  In the manual which was clearly written before the 
lawyers took over the world, it gives a procedure to set it started in 
the event of a dead battery.  The rider is to put the machine into the 
low gear, attach a tow rope to an automobile, and then at 35 miles an 
hour or so, let out the clutch and drop the tow rope.  I have always 
opted to get it jump started, instead.  BMWs are much easier to bump 
start...  Rick where is your Spirit of Adventure?

Are you using the Argo 515 in this setup?
