Status: offline 		Aside from the obvious advantage of not having to have another battery, would there be any advantage to removing the EZ-Start on the TRX 3.3 and replacing it with a pull-start?

How would this affect centre-of-gravity and how significant would the weight-reduction be?

Status: offline 		i like the easy start mine works very well the jato is so overpowered anyway i just dont see the weight being an issue and any weight you remove it from the rear and may just cause more wheel spin the only possible advantage would be simplicity but you will just trade the easy start box for a glo igniter

Status: offline 		ive got a pullstart on mine and i like it alot better... the benifits are it makes the truck lighter, less drag on the motor so it revs up alittle faster
