I want to first appoligize for the newbie question. I've done a search for this question but I still don't understand jetting. I'm having a problem with my 400ex not starting. I rode it for a while last night. Turned off the gas and let it run until it died. I went to load it in my truck this morning and it wouldnt start. I tried chokeing it, pumping the gas, letting it sit. I let it sit for a while and went and got my Honda manual.
The manual says to fully choke it, give it a little throttle, and cranking it over. I tried this but it still didnt work. I didnt have time to see if you plug was fouled but since I'm in town today, I'm going to go to Honda and get a couple. I hope this is what is making it not start. My real question is about my jetting. I'm not sure what jet its got in it. I bought it with a White Brothers E Series pipe and K&N filter. I assume that the previous owned jetted it accordingly. I live in Southwest Missouri,,, not sure on exact elevation,,, but what should my jetting be? Again sorry about the newbie question. Thanks, TYRELL
