Vertigo dl12 300

Hi I've just got the above bike a 2018 model and I'm finding it difficult to get started. I've ordered a new air and fuel filter in the hope that this could help. The only times I've had it started I had to squirt a syringe of premix down the throttle body but I can't be doing that all the time 😂

Does it sound like a fuel filter problem or pump problem to you guys. I don't think it helps that I got the 300cc version and I'm only 156lbs. But it was road registered and in pretty good condition.

Thanks guys 😊👍👍

Fuel injected?  sounds like low fuel pressure at startup

I was thinking along the same lines, if the filter is blocked it will restrict the fuel I suppose 😊👍👍👍

Thanks

Lots of potential causes, a leak in a pressure line is just as likely as a blockage, does it have a battery or capacitor, does it need a bigger battery or capacitor.  Fi pumps can usually be checked for performance by powering them up to an external power supply and measuring the volume of output over time.

It has the capacitor.

Cheers for the info 😊👍👍👍
