with a sx kickstart pedal being longer does it make sense to put one on a gp to get a better kick. (or not) cheers

I think that the main problem with Lammy kickstart mechanism is that it doesn't turn the engine enough (about 1 and half turns per one kick if my memory serves me right). Longer kickstart doesn't help with that at all and as it sticks out so it well get caught on something standing on the way much easier. Of course if your problem is the high compression it might be worthwhile to change to longer kickstart as the extra lever makes kickin little bit easier.
