Mine did that too and I found out that if you push the lever in a little with your foot while kicking it...it would work great and not slip. At least it worked for me.

[20:55] <waterpumper> putting a racing pipe on a Foreman is like putting a high dollar bikini on a 400 pound chick...just because it fits doesn't mean it looks cool

ATC crazy, mine is the same way ! i stand up and get a firm compression stroke ready to go and like you said,,, just kinda kick inboard or towards the skid plate and it catchs 9 times out of ten.
untill i discovered that i thought i was gonna haft to split the case again.
still will probly next fall or winter if i have it that long.
i am a thinking that a thrust washer had been left out oor worn out if not the teeth on the kicker shaft (inside)

My SX used to do that now and again. I would hurt sometimes if you you were giving it a good kick when it slipped. But since my output shaft shattered and I got a new bottom end the new bottom end hasn't slipped on me yet. My friend's SX on the other hand slips all the time.
