Subject: [DSN_KLR650] New uncommissioned no-maintenance battery for sale -
deep discount
I ordered a no-maintenance battery from Fred 2 weeks ago as a precautionary
replacement. Before it arrived, I found I needed to replace my 6 year old
unit to attend a rally - SO - I have a Yuasa Maintenance Free Battery
#YTX14AHL-BS for sale for $65 ($97 regular price, w/o postage) delivered by
USPS or slow boat UPS (my choice).
Lemme know,
Don M

Josh,
Two things come immediately to mind.
First, by giving it gas I assume you mean you open the throttle a bit.
That actually leans the mixture when starting as you are adding air but
no extra fuel. When you mention the choke that is really an enrichener.
Kind of like a carburetor inside a carburetor. So giving it choke adds
fuel making the mixture richer. So it sounds like you are either
richening the mixture by using the choke or leaning the mixture by
opening the throttle. Seems counter productive to me. But if you are
flooding the bike by using the choke first and then clearing the cylinder
by giving it throttle that could work. Same as leaning it first by
opening the throttle and then richening it by using the choke. Either
way you could get to the correct air/fuel ratio so the engine could
start.
Second, and this is what I'd look at first... check the valve clearances.
If they have tightened up they will cause a hard start issue. My
suggestion is to set them at the largest clearance possible. For the KLR
that is either 0.007" or 0.008" for the intake valves and 0.009" or
0.010" for the exhaust valves. Once the valve clearances are at max spec
I bet the hard starting when warm/hot goes away.
Might also be worth checking your air filter to make sure it's clean.
Best,
Jeff Saline
