My CB200 has one of those, works a treat if the battery can produce enough power to fire the plugs. Otherwise, it's run and push until the battery charges a bit. My CB650 is more modern, no kickstart pedal. I have bump started it, but not with a totally flat battery. At the Honda shop in the 1980's, my 18 year old apprentice owned a CB900F. He bump started it fairly often, I think he did it for fun.
