2009 CRF250R. Why is it difficult to start?

Purchased second hand. The guy claims it's hard starting. Here is all we have done, replaced and checked but still the problem persists... ok so from the top.. new stainless in and ex valves, re-shimmed the head and valve stem seals. new cylinder and piston kit, cam timing correct. carb has std jetting all round and float level is correctly set with a new outside adjustable air screw fitted a new Twinair filter, new gaskets and seals and everything torqued to the correct specs.. So bike kicks over maybe 50-100 times then starts idles and revs no problem, turn the bike off then kick another 100 times and it will start again.. swopped the ignition stick coil still no difference.. when it runs its fine she idles ok, revs up clean no problem, but to get it to restart is a major issue, removed carb and checked everything again... so is there something i'm missing here??

The 2009 CRF250R is a very popular bike in the dirt bike market. The CRF250R has become very popular due to its design and features that make it a great value for money dirt bike. It's relatively cheap compared to other brands of dirt bikes, which makes it more affordable for new riders.
In terms of ease of use, this model is not as easy to start off with compared to some other models in the market. This is because there are a lot of steps involved in starting off with this model, including checking if your insurance covers you or not. To find out whether your insurance covers you or not, you need to contact your insurer directly so they can check on the coverage that is offered by them and see if it includes the risk that comes along with owning a dirt bike like an electric start system (which isn't covered). Once this has been confirmed, then you can purchase one from any dealer who sells them at an affordable price such as Gearhonest online.

I don't know how to use my whirlpool front loader I purchased second hand today. It is only 2 years old and in lovely condition but I've never used a front loader before. It did not come with an...

When you buy a second hand washer it is important to ask for a demo or a free trial . If this is not done a second hand is always a second owner though it looks new which can be done with some cosmetics.
Check the power, check the display, check the inlet supply, check the door to close and click . When the start is initiated if the water does not flow or activate you will need to check with your seller . take opinion before you go further.

Starting problem with honda crf250r 09 model when cod or hot

I have a honda crf250 2009 model i recently brought it off a mate. Had the same problem could not get the thing started. Missed races cause of this... I worked out how to get it started. On Cold start, turn the fuel on give the throttle 3 full pumps. Then do not touch it! Put ur hand in the middle of the handlebars if need be. Kick start the bike still may take a couple kicks but on mine its generally about 2-4 kicks. Then through out the day when u want to start it do no twist that throttle it just squirts fuel in and u may as well just pack it up!! I know this is what i have to do not saying yours will be the same but i hope it all works out!!!

HARD TO START. WILL ONLY RUN ABOUT 20 SECONDS.

Your carburetor needs cleaned. Disassemble and spray with carb. cleaner. TIP: Use a Den Tek Brush, (used for cleaning between teeth),to clean small portals in carb. check the small screen in carb. for debris. Reassemble and start. If it still doesn't run properly, buy a carb. kit and replace the small screen, needle valve, gasket(s), and diaphram. this should definitely do it.

Difficult to pull the start chord.

Posted by m_mcneley on May 14, 2009
Difficult as it takes two guys to pull it out? Have you tried taking the recoil off of the machine and pulling it? If recoil pulls easy off of machine then try rolling the saw over by hand. If the saw resists rolling over manually then you could possibly have a burnt up engine. Do you have to mix gas for operation

2006 Aprilia RS125 doesnt start

Hi .... Try switching the petrol off just prior to stopping the engine and start up again with the petrol OFF. There's enough petrol in the carb to start the bike. A good battery should show over 12 volts. Take the plugs out and give them a good clean or replace them. Is there a petrul pump fitted ? A two stroke needs to be ridden quite hard to maintain efficeincy, higher revs etc ........ let us know how you get on ?
