Well, just picked up a 2004 450r today. Visible mods are full curtis sparks exhaust, and I don't konw the name brand, but one of hem drag axels, and a dynatec(sp?) chip. When I got there, the guy kicked it over and I went down the road and all was good. Got back, killed it, started it and killed it about 4 or 5 times. Let it sit for about 5 minutes, and started it again. Left, stopped and filled up the tank on it, and when I got home it wouldnt start for nothing. Tried choke and everything. So we pulled started it and it starts and runs and idols fine. Ride it for a few min and still doesn't start. It feels like it has lots of compression, and it sounds like it wants to start but doesnt unless being pulled.The guy said he thinks the motor is stock, but not 100% sure beings how it was his cousins. and come to find out it smokes a little...great... any suggestions on what to do next? thanks, neil

Might need vavles adjusted. And the decompression set.

1)your vavles need adjusted

2)Is it getting gas to the carb ?
3)Take the carb off and clean it really good.
