no throttle
get it to tdc, and kick the sh*t out of it..pop it in gear and go
doesnt start that well in gear, in my opinion..
i get 1st kick starts every time...

I warm mine up a little and then shut her down and wait for my start I never get it hot.. 1 good solid kick and I'm off in gear and all.

My buddie, run a 450r, and he had to get his broke in pretty well, before it began to start in gear easly. It seemed to start better, after we installed the HRC kit!!
I have heard, that a higher octain fuel is harder to combust, mabey just try running straight 93 threw it. Iono if any of this info will help you out, but its all that i really have to tell ya!

You can't attach multiple pics in one post directly from your HD. The only way to get more than one pic in a post is to link them from another website that hosts pictures (i.e. Imagestation).

i always leave the choke off and then give it some gas right when the kicker is right at the bottom and fires right up.
