One thing that bugs me is that my 02 ninja is hard to start when its cold. Quite a beast, and can take 20 cranks to really get her going. In warm temps its fine starting.

Im thinking that if i pull the jets and clean them that might work. What else should i look for?
Wit the cold start problem Check that the choke mechanism is working freely and full travel before stripping anything. When it starts full choke should lift the rpm quite a lot like 3-4k (off the top of my head) If it doesn't do that then that may be the cause of the trouble. that said they are warm blooded engines and don't like cold
