450F Starts but doesnt run

MY-BLUE-BEAST · Apr 18, 2014

We pulled my brothers WR out of storage today and tried to fire it up. When we got it started it ran for about 15 seconds and then it died. Im not sure if I should let it rin and warm up, or pull the carb off and give it a good cleaning. It starts with no assitance from starting fluid, just wont run. Any ideas? Thanks in advance

clean the pilot jet, or better yet, replace the pilot jet.

Enjoy your ride friend, its most likely going to be soup out where we are going. Haven't given it enough time to dry out.

Mission accomplished gentleman. The bike now starts and runs. I drained all of the old gas, cleaned the carb, and put fresh gas in it. Ready to rock :rocker:

My ride today was pretty good. From 6am and I just got home a few minutes ago, not bad for the first ride of the season. How was yours?
