how do i get take the kick start off????

There should be a bolt holding on the kicker itself. It might be loctited on there.

Use a 3/8 drive racket and the hit it with a 1/2 drive racket. Just becarefull and hit it straight dont strip the bolt.
 
I would keep the kicker folded in and put a bar behind it and in front of the frame to brace it to aviod damage to the kicker shat and gears/ springs, then use mr305 advice from there with the breaker bar

Impact wrenches are really handy electric or air powered
