Bike won't start...
So I've been looking for a solution on the web forums and everything for the past 3 weeks. I left my 250R unattended for about 2 years. I took out the carb and cleaned it thinking it was clogged with gummy gas but to my surprise, it was still clean spick and span. Nontheless, I took out the jets to make sure the holes are all cleaned. Put them back, and I think I did the hose wrong. But after searching this forum, I found a few pictures on how to route the hose on the carbs and gas tank. It seems to be correctly with the pictures from a few posts I found on gas tank and carb. The bike has new fresh gas, I primed it for 30 secs with a new battery installed yet the bike doesnt start. It'll crank the starter strongly but the RPM doens't want to budge! Anything I can try to get this baby on the road again? I'm located in South California Orange County so the the bike is a CA version if that makes any difference. Any help would be appreciated!

You need gas, air, and spark.
Are you sure you have gas getting to the carbs? open the drain valves and see if gas comes out. Then pull the spark plugs, check for gas on the plugs and check for spark. While you are pulling everything apart check to make sure some critter didn't build a nest in the air box. |
