Starting my bike ...

[clownzee]

Hi dudes ...

I wonder why i find it difficult to start my bike when de engine is hot. But in the morning, when the engine is cold, its easy to start. Any ideas??

think is normal. jus hold on throttle abit and start when its hot will be easier for my case.

I find it funny. Usually ppl face this problem when their bike is cold but mine is the other way round. I hafta hold on to the throttle and den it can start. But wen it cold, its easy to start ...

are you using OWS sparkplugs..? they need some throttle when start hot..

i using denso iridium also same leh.. maybe need a few times. 3 - 4 times cannot start i hold throttle liao. morning confirm no problem.. 1 time sure up!

it's normal, and it's especially the case for the older bikes like spec 1 or spec 2, unless you still could not start the engine after 2 to 3 tries... if not, your engine is fine and there's nothing wrong with the spark plugs (i checked with a lot of mechanics before).

 

i figured it out that it got to do with how honda designed their engine to allow cold start... i even have friends riding spec 3 experiencing the same thing, and i believe some of us here experience the same thing too... so dun worry! =)

Thanx riders for ur comments. Appreciate~

those with auto choke should not have any problem when bike is cold.

 

when bike it warmed up, just throttle a bit when pressing the start button.

Hey TS, i am riding spec III, new bike, and i am experiencing similar stuffs. Hot start is more difficult than cold.

[zell_teo]
