September 8, 201114 yr On a high compression 2stroke This sounds too good to be true .... Can you please give us some clue as to how this will be done? Best of balance. Neo Hi Mate Decompressor maybe ? but you;ll need your hand to pull the lever... Paul Mac
September 8, 201114 yr quote name='B40RT' timestamp='1315518684' post='279510'] Depends whats connected to the hand ! Don't think I want to know Edited September 8, 201114 yr by paulmac
September 22, 201114 yr Key component - get the latest map loaded from the dealer (12 I think) - this addresses the hard start, and speeds up the tickover a touch. No throttle Neutral from cold Wear Boots Kick from the very top like you mean it It gasps a little for the first few seconds I now can't blame the bike when I stall in sections and it starts in gear first kick easily when warm.
September 23, 201114 yr the 2012 bikes seem ok to start, from cold you give it 3 or 4 lazy kicks to prime it and them one like you mean it and its off, when hot just the one like you mean it and its fine.very nice bike to look at and even better to ride cant wait to get on it again jsp
September 23, 201114 yr Mmmm have you tried the GasGas or Beta this is not an issue Not surprising either as both of those engines have been kicking around (with minimal update) for donkeys years Best of balance. Neo

Neo And they run carbs that don't require a large dose of electricity to start the fuel moving. Once you're used to any bikes starting ritual such as preloading the kickstart on a gasser to protect the mechanism it all becomes second nature
September 24, 201114 yr i also think it will get alot better as the motor loosens up mines only been been riden once. the dealer told me once it had run in it will be 2 kicks to prime it and one to start, in his words when you kick it to start it kick it like a 300 gasser and so far so good jsp
September 25, 201114 yr My bike after 1 month run in, still map 11 . But it is better now only 1 or 2 kicks to start ... May be the computer learns themselves
September 26, 201114 yr had my second ride yesterday and its got better already, it seems to be other people that arnt used to it that struggle to start it. what a bike im more impressed after each ride has anyone got any tips or things to check after pressure washing jsp Edited September 26, 201114 yr by jsp
