So Far The Swift Kick Is It!
By Wrench

Nash02

The days of the 19th century kicker are over. Tired of using those old kick arms that flop back to the kick position every time you ride? Nash Motorcycle Company solved the problem. Developed and Patented by John Grant, these one of a kind kicker arms are like nothing seen before.

Cast from a 174 stainless steel, and constructed with all premium stainless steel hardware. A brushed brass end cap tops off the kick pedal to give it that unique look. Machined into the arm are rare earth magnets that hold the kick pedal in place, when in the down position.

Flips out, locks in, for a solid kick, flips back, slides down for a comfortable ride. Available in brushed and polished finishes.

Here's one of the magnets keeping the pedal from rattling around. Nash can do this since stainless is not magnetic.

We took it apart to see the guts and discovered another magnet in the pedal (top).

We received one of these massive units recently and it's heavy duty and solid stainless. That's why the magnets work so well to hold all the components in place to prevent vibration and noise. To operate you pull the brass, spring operated, end cap and flip the pedal 90 degrees. To hide the kicker and prevent it from flopping around like most kick-pedals, you pull the brass cap again, stand the lever straight up and it slides down the kicker arm to a secure and tight position.

Note the Patent pending. Don't steal the notion.

Ever since the kicker history began, folks have tried various, wild, custom configurations. This puppy works and we'll test it out on our next Mudflap Girl project bike. This brass end cap is dying to be engraved with a 5-Ball by Heather New before the project is completed. Hang on for more reports.

It's a good looking stout piece. Can't wait to try it out.
