[QUOTE="E-man811, post: 1056389, member: 65320"] Take this with a grain of salt. You have one of a few issues, I doubt any of which is a jetting problem. Not to say that your jetting couldn't be improved, but I don't think it is causing your cold start problems. Could be..... 1 Fuel leaking into the crankcase through the float. Either mal-adjusted or the seat is in poor condition and is leaking. Take the bowl off and inspect this with your own eyes before you do anything else. Based on your info and your comment about fuel from the overflow lines, this seems the most likely. 2 Transmission oil seeping into the crank case through a worn drive side seal. Could be bad enough that it's happening when sitting or just bad enough that it sucks a bit when cold. 3 Air filter that is over oiled or motor oil is being used on it. Have seem both of these plenty 4 Ignition problems. However, they will usually work or not work, or exhibit problems while the bike is running. BTW, does your bike ride home in a trailer or in the back on a pickup, if so, make sure that the fuel is turned off. Open you carb, inspect the float level and the float needle and seat, then report back. [/QUOTE]
