We got over 2 inches of rain yesterday. Glad for a break today. I hope Lucy and I stay dry on our am and pm walks.

MoreNing. [coffee]

Bike hasn't been started in a few months, but I think I will be good with just new tires.

Another 70° + day on tap.
It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

Is yours a carby or injected?
Injected...
Not sure how well the choke works though...

How easy is your 996 to start?
2004 S4R, Full Termi Kit, marving midpipe, DP Clutch pressure plate, Rizoma Open Clutch Cover,  Ducabike Slave Cyl and some tasteful carbon blingy goodness

Yours has a "fast idle" lever? ??? If battery is below 12.0V it wont start . . . If you have the voltage, check the side stand switch and clutch lever microswitch . . . after checking ALL the other regular suspects . . .

Usually starts right up as long as the battery is good. I use a tiny battery because the bike has no lights. The fast idle set-up is different on the SBK's.

I am glad it isn't a kicker though. ;)

That is the FS's reasoning.
Medic's...what do they know?

Thanks guys...
Is most likely flooded.
When it has difficulty starting, it is usually fine the next day (after battery is charged up after trying too many times)

No fast idle Carlos, just a normal manual choke as far as I can tell..
Servo motor was kicking over, would just not fire.

The FI bikes have a fast idle, not a choke.

If it were left to a medic - especially those with the girl scout green berets (like Kopf's ;) ) - a little 100 mph tape and I'm golden.

It's these people that spend half their lives in school that think they know everything. [roll]
