I tot pulling the choke to start in the morning is normal............ i have been doing this for 5 years - there is no starting problem until once when the battery is kaput. Haahaaa sometimes i forgot to push the choke back while riding off - then the bike died, but it will start up again easily.

I'm experiencing the same problems these few days. These rainy weathers make the engine turn cold fast...

 

Try increasing your bike idling speed a little bit

Carb juz serviced last month.any idea y my bike difficult to start?

i had the same problem 1 half yr ago when i bought my x1, every single morning, kick start until leg wobbly. but i've never open choke before. and well, after some time, the problem went away already.

 

the only maintenance i do is eo monthly & spark plug every 3 mth. have yet to service carb because when my mech says not required for now.

 

so maybe, just give it more time, it'll probably go away?

The choke is there for a reason.. it helps the bike to start in cold weather.. using the choke to start ure bike dosent do it any harm.. else why would they put it there?

 

a choke valve is a valve that modifies the air pressure in the intake manifold of an internal combustion engine, and thereby modifies the ratio of fuel and air quantity entering the engine. Choke valves are generally used in engines with carburetors, to supply a richer fuel mixture during engine start than at other times. Most choke valves in engines are actually butterfly valves that are mounted in the manifold above the carburetor jet, to produce a higher partial vacuum and thereby draw more fuel into the intake stream.

difficulty in starting?

isn't it spark plug or the cable that connects it to the engine?

ya starter jet must been clog i guess ...
