brucesouthern Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 I recently purchased a Rev3 2002 and initially it started very easy,Ileft the bike without starting it for about 4 weeks and now find it will not start. Fitted a new plug today and with the coldstart plunger up managed to get it started and run for about 10seconds, after that it will only start after several kicks and run for about 2-3 secs. It sounds like fuel any idea's guys?, thanks in anticipation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stork955 Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 Gday, yes, it sounds like fuel. I'd clean the carb and refill the tank with fresh fuel. While you're at it, check and clean the air filter as well. Cheers, Stork Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foulkesy Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 Is it kicking back on start, if so check the woodruff key? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
