Hot Start Problems with Kickstarter?

Hello,

I ride a YZF 250F and it runs great except for one thing that is pretty fatal.

When the engine is cold, it starts perfectly after the first or second kick and runs smoothly and quietly. I also have no problems while driving. Performance is good.

So now I turn off the motorcycle, or stall it on an enduro. After that, I can't get it to start before it falls over. I pull the hot start lever and kick it 100 times, but it won't start when hot.

I then have to find a hill and roll down it in second gear. Then it runs like nothing happened. The valve clearance, air filter, and oil have all been changed, and yet the problem still persists…

Thanks for your help..

Battery ignition or magnet? In some motorcycles with magnetic ignition, this is so that it does not generate enough voltage in warm magnets. There's no battery ignition. Or your contact distance of the candle is too large.

I'd make a new candle.
