[QUOTE="PK, post: 18021, member: 17470"] A new bike is always harder to start than a used one. You may have flooded it in your efforts to bring life to your XR. Try a new plug, which you are obviously looking into since you are attempting to remove the plug. There is no real trick to removing the plug, the stock one should do the trick but if it isn't, you may have to remove the gas tank so you can get a good shot at it with a regular spark plug socket. If it was my bike, I would swallow my pride and pull start the damn thing. Before I do that I would ensure nothing has been over looked. Got gas? Check the air filter? Check for spark? Fresh spark plug? I say bump start the rascal. When I was in Alaska, I rode my XR400 when it was below freezing many a time. It was obviously harder to start at that temperature, but it would start after 6 or 7 kicks. Keep at it. Pat [/QUOTE]
