Kickstart ´slips´ on ´81 XS400

Instead of pushing down on the kickstarter and feeling the resistance of the pistons moving up and down, it feels like the kickstarter just slips (and in the process wastes my energy and patience). This doesn´t happen all the time: I´d say 50% of the time it turns the engine over and 50% it slips.
