Pretty sure youre supposed to pour a little gas into the oil fill cap... it causes the engine to begin moving from the chemical reaction.

That's all wrong. Everytime you kick it really put your body into it and twist the shit out of that throttle. Drop our elbow as low as possible as it acts as a weight so once you reach maximum kick she's cracked wide open for some real flow. And bam she's whicked. Thank me later.

You need to put some hot water in the gas tank with your gas to help get the fuel to the right starting temperature. Then just kick it and hold the throttle wide open.

So, you have, or you haven't ever ridden a dirtbike?




Do the same thing you did, in the post above, that allowed you to ride it in the first place. If you have no experience with a dirt bike, why wouldn't you just ask how to start a bike? Why were yoiu 4 stroke specific?

If it's a carbureted be sure and hold the throttle about half open and begin kicking slowly.

You can't start it? Maybe you're just a pussy? PS: Will someone just ban this troll already.....

All kidding aside, I almost had to ask this question when I bought an rmz450 a few months back lol. Finally learned the drill tho.

You pull the handle with the rope attached to it.

1.) Sell it.

2.) Buy a cat and collect figurines.

3.) If you want to buy a bike ( for real ) don't get a 450...if you do , make sure you have your last will and testament all up to date. Your family will thank you.

Get a small cup of 91 octane......dump on the seat and hit it with a match. You'll be shocked how fast she'll start up. Way faster than kicking.
