[QUOTE="SMarquez, post: 1380601, member: 33837"] Put the bike in 2nd gear and rock the bike through the compression stroke with the gas on, choke on. Make sure you get full extension on the kicker and don't be shy when you kick it. I crack my throttle at the bottom of the stroke just a little bit. You could do a head mod too. Lowers compression a little and make starting easier. It involves a 30 degree cut, 8mm wide at the dome. It gives the squish a 3 angle dimension. [/QUOTE]
