Mine is easily push started... at least it was before I replaced my primary sheave...
We figured this out when I stopped on a downhill trail for a beer... and couldn`t get it out of low to start it again... I told my wife to go and rock the Rhino so I could get it started and poof it started right up in Low range.

Alright... made a video this weekend! I will upload it after work. It totally does push start, and really easily.
2WD, low range, little bit of a decline, wife rockin on the rear bars. Works in 4x4 too. Didn't try high range, but can't see why it wouldn't work.

Ive thought about this a few times , after it was posted (and before the video)...I don't "hike" very often ; but , I do tend to "recycle" aluminum cans ...'specially Miller cans. Sometimes a feller does his best thInkin while recycling. If one test for a bad wet clutch, is to try n push the bike forward (and it doesn't cuz the engines compression keeps it from happening)...why wouldn't , and / or couldn't be able to be bump started??? Kinda makes logical sense , to me...i know that ive done this on quads before...I'm gonna try this on mine this weekend.
