[QUOTE="yz250-effer, post: 207367, member: 20448"] [b]Sounds familiar.[/b] When I first got mine last year, the first ride consisted of 1 hour of kicking my leg and foot were jello. They are just hard to start when brand new for some reason? After 2 or 3 rides you will do everything the same as on the first ride from hell, and it will fire right up. I only do one thing different. When it is cold I give it one "teeny" blip ( very teeny ) and then pull out the choke. THen I get it to TDC and use the comp. release to go just 1 inch ( I think that is less that 20 degrees). THen I bring the kickstarter ALL the way to the top and kick forcefully, but not too fast and let my foot stay on the bottom of the stroke. If you bring the starter up too quick the dogs engage and can kill the motor right when it was about to start. After 3 rides I never had a hard time starting it and I would tell friends, " If you can start it, you can ride it! " Cuts down on the free rides:) [/QUOTE]
