I've never known slow crank speed on a one cylinder Kohler to be a show stopper but maybe so.

I appreciate all the tips and considerations. At this point, I don't believe it to be bad points/timing/coil. I think it just has to do with a poorly topped up battery due to it being out in the windy cold. I'll likely look into the rear end heater for support.
As far as the slow cranking speed being an issue, it was like that on my dad's 125 for years.
Would it help that it was low on fuel? Did I mention that?
I'll keep everyone posted on my findings.
