My kawi 250f can be a pain sometimes. When I take it out of my garage with choke on it fires up 1st kick. Say I got ride for 10 minutes and I fall Sometimes it will start sometimes it wont. Like today I was goon riding and I washed out 2nd burm because it was all muddy so i slid out and ?I couldnt get it started, Had to jump start it. Once I did that the bike rode perfect, i turned it off for a sec to check everything out because I just changed oil. Everything seemed good I pulled in hot start and boom fires right up. One of my friends that works at a suzuki shop straight up told me WELCOME TO 4 STROKES, this bike is my first 4 stroke BTW and my other friend says to have my valves inspected, what yall think this is? Thanks and I apprciate your time, HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

Reallly because I seen someone else say they stripped out their air bleeder for their forks and was asking what do, so I did not think it would be a problem.

All the above & check the valves. Once they suck into the head a bit, they can give you lower compression & real hard starting. Usually valve's that don't have enough clearance leads to harder starting when it's cold, not hot though. If not the valves, you just need to learn how to start a dropped 4 stroke. Far from a 2 stroke, find a system that works & stick to it.

Ok thanks man, because my friends honda was doing the same and he had his vavles readjusted and now it is fine. When it get running hot I give it one easy kick just all the way through and then kick it hard and fires right up.

You don't have to be from any particular country to see you're an idiot.

Remember the account that you started with my name in it? You are an idiot. But...I'm moving this to the Race Shop on the chance that someone in here is willing to overlook that, and offer you some help.
