See what size jets your running and maybe check with the guys on here if your jetting is correct. My shee was like that and when I cleaned the carbs it started fine. Check yout slides are opening at the same time also. G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coryv4 Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 if the bike is modded make sure it has a bigger pilot alot of people forget that a lean pilot makes for hard staring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
