[QUOTE="WRecker, post: 209452, member: 23883"] Stormer94, you'll probably get it started with fewer kicks if you DO use the choke from the get-go. My drill for starting my WR250F is: choke on, gas on, kick just past TDC using the comp. release, and 2-3 full twists of the throttle to prime the cylinder, then kick. It will start on the second kick 98% of the time. The other 2% of the time is usually due to a boneheaded maneuver on the owner's part. If, during your struggle to start it, you find gas dribbling out of the vent tubes onto the ground, shut the gas off and lean the bike over on it's side to completely empty the carb. Then, start over, only this time don't touch the throttle. The one problem I DO have from time to time, and maybe somebody can shed some light on this, is I have intermittent success with using the hot-start button when the bike is hot. Sometimes it needs it to start, sometimes it doesn't. And it seems like if I make the wrong choice in whether or not to use it, I end up kicking the bejeezus out of it to get it going again. Any suggestions? [/QUOTE]
