I just got the bike back from the garage, they were changing the Oil Filter for me, so at the same time they gave it a wee service, plug and air filter too
My son went to start it, as it sounded like it was going to start he gave the throttle a twist, it died..............................
Now nothing....................
I've tried all off the below, changed the plug (several times)
The bike has always started 1st-2nd kick every time
Theres a good spark at the plug
I'm baffeled
I have a trial in the morning, it looks like I'm not going to make it
1:Always start with no throttle - slow steady prod - make sure clutch not dragging - put into neutral if in doubt.
If doesn't start fist time flick throttle open and let snap shut and then press kill button - do it a couple of times and then kick normal
If it doesn't start then
3 long slow kicks with throttle wide open - slower than when trying to start it.
Then try the throttle flick/kill button
2:Overdoing the air-filter oiling. Or cleaning. (I've took the air filter out)
people tend to twist the throttle while kicking hard (hence the "slow push" works better)
Solution? One or two kicks with wide open throttle, close the throttle and kick again.
3:Best way to get it started is to kick it once WOT and then without throttle. This is to flood petrol into the engine
