[QUOTE="jdblack7, post: 1399169, member: 120430"] I just recently purchased a KTM, my first, and this thing is really tough to start. Any suggestions? The seller said he thought that the previous owner may have changed the jet out to a larger size, so I guess this might be a good place to start. He also said that they (he & his son) had checked the valves and the valve clearance was in tolerance. Perhaps a carburator rebuild? Air filter is clean. Once the bike starts, it idles and runs very strong, it's just getting the bike started that stinks right now. Bike has 59 hours on the meter. I've ridden a `99 CR 250 for the past ten years and know that 2 strokes typically start easier than a four strokes. If anyone has any suggestions I'd really appreciat it. Thanks from a newbie member.
