Starting probs

#1 PostAuthor: AlanB » Thu Aug 23, 2018 6:46 pm

79 Z1000 A2 - Recent slight problems starting her up after being left in garage for say a week or so and of course no cold weather to blame - Seems to take about 30 seconds or so of turnover to start.My starting action is to start with no choke and then gradually feed choke in etc.Once it starts it's absolutely fine and runs/ticks over really nice.Once warm it starts on the button again just fine - Recently changes plugs from NGK to Denso but makes no difference - Any thoughts ? Cheers all :roll:

Put the choke on 3/4 before starting & gradually back it off

Kawasaki's have always been greedy on start up even in summer not like H****'s which will start with no choke whatever the weather . :lol: :lol:
