alex Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 Heya mate welcome too the forum. I had one when I was younger and it always happened with me. The problems we found was that the crank used to fill with fuel d thats why its such a b*tch to start. Like you said hold the throttle open kick a good few times and always eventually starts, thats what we had to do every bloody time lol. But thats there only dawn fall. hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dickielumpkin Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 My lad had one and we had the same problem from new. It turned out to be the reed block (behind the inlet manifold). Seems GG had a batch with distorted blocks which meant the reeds weren't making a seal. They replaced it free of charge and the bike started perfectly everytime. Its easy to check this so might be worth a look. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
