Hard Starting - Yet another thread

<< < (3/3)

Polar-Bus:
Agree with Sandblaster, my K5 likes a gulp of raw fuel in the carb when cold for easier starting. lean over to the left until fuel dribbles out the overflow hose, then kick, mine lites right off after about 3 kicks. One or two kicks hot depending on my leg strength.. LOL

motopunk:
i do the lean-over with all dirtbikes where is a carb in, to make sure that the carb is floated, before starting...  :-)

i saw a guy,that were kicking, kicking, kicking.... and still silence around the bike. i said to him, lean it to the left and look for gas that comes from overflow... after that he did only one kick and his bike was running...  :lol: .. 2-strokes are my religion...  8-)
