HOWDY!

Nope, the '79 has the Mark II carbs, no tickler.

Depress the enricher (choke) lever and crack the throttle, kick the bike hard once or twice to flow a charge of gas into the jugs.

Turn on the key and kick it like you mean it, with the throttle cracked open and the "choke" left on.

Learn to balance and drop ALL of your body weight on the starter to get max kick.

P.S. Nice field you are riding in!
