Tip when trying to tow/pull
Get a bloke that is a bit heavy,he need to throw down all he's weight on the back wheel (rear of seat) when he drops the clutch to get the wheel turned against the compresion,also try this in 2nd or even 3rd gear,don't try on grass or gravel you will not get it wright try it on a tarr surface

Keep in mind that it has an accelerator pump and squirts a big stream of fuel every time you twist the throttle. No one should tell you simply "open the throttle slightly'' whilst kicking. After a couple kicks, you would have it completely, hopelessly flooded. This is the most common reason for new owners' inability to start. After the first squirt(if needed) it's best to put the throttle hand on the throttle housing (off of the twist grip) to avoid opening the throttle each kick. If it becomes over fueled, leave the throttle closed and pull the red hot start button, then kick. Failure to start will be the result of too much fuel or too little fuel and you will have to learn the appropriate procedure for the particular bike and temperature. The de-comp lever and kick procedure is another story in itself. I highly recommend putting in a Hot Cams exhaust cam with auto de-compressor to make your kicking drill much easier.

Frame color:
Deep Purplish Blue Metallic C (DPBMC)
This is Yamaha's color designation which is a dead end since they don't sell paint. Try Colorrite.com as they specialize in motorcycle oem match paint. This color is a 2-step process and requires the correct color primer to come out right. Color rite can fix you up with the proper coatings.

I have had the same problem with my bike, but found out that the jets were wrong and had to down size two times and now i have had no problems starting up or if i have stalled the bike it only takes about kicks to get it running again.
