I've bump started my Pan on a number of occasions; that is very tricky, as the engine is quite big for the weight. But even that can be bump started without much ado with a swift but delicate half-release. Top gear is a must.
I had a Suzuki Freewind 650 cc single cylinder. I could never get that bumpstarted in an orderly fashion; it did behave vile then, like a bucking bronco.

For confirmation go to people just like you.
For education go to people unlike yourself.
