Motorcycle Repair: starting cold weather, 2004 honda xr650l, gasoline additives


Question
2004 Honda xr650L Trouble with cold weather starting 12000 miles.

Answer
Hi Cindy,

I need more intel to offer assistance.

Be very thorough and descibe what you're experiencing. The more you provide, the better my diagnosis. Examples:

When was last tune-up?
Was the MC stored or not started for two or more weeks?
Any aftermarket performance parts or engine modifications?
Have you checked the spark plugs for fouling?
Do you have the service manual?
Was any gasoline additives added?
Does the engine turn over?
Is there spark?  
What happens when you attempt to starting?
Is the choke working or moving normally?

Review my instructions and try posting your question again.

Standing by...

Respectfully,
Mark Shively
