If the bike is properly maintained and the operator knows what he's doing there won't be a problem. But yeah, it's true that a stiff backfire can do damage, usually happens to someone like the girl in that video.
Yep, first bike that ever tried to separate my leg from my body was a late 60's Suzuki. I was a kid, I used to lean it up against the shed so that I could stand on the kickstart and then heave down on it, but one day it nearly put me on the roof of the shed.
Here's a good video showing why a big Vtwin is a ***** to start with a kickstart.
