2010 KLX250s Wont start unless you give it gas
Title says it all. My bike won't start unless you give it gas. Its not a huge problem because once it does start it idles great and runs great. Even after its warmed up quite a bit it still won't start on its own. Only after you give it throttle. Any suggestions on what could be the cause of this. The bike is a 2010 and has 3500 miles on it and has been doing this since we bought the bike at 1500 miles. Thanks

Mine does the same thing and the previously mechanic jetting the carb too rich I think. I got the kdx snorkel and full exhaust going on this weekend, im debating if it needs to be rejetted after or not since its so rich

my bike 2012 brand new would not start without gas
and if it sits for 6-8 hrs san diego weather you need to pull out choke to start
10,000 miles later, couple mods still need to give gas to start
and still choke it too
its not fuel injected and I don't recall any carb bike I ever had start with no gas

yes its rejected and I even went the extra step and used a wideband meter to dial the jetting in exactly how I wanted it
but like I said the bike acted the same way it is now, when brand new all stock
never started without giving a twist of the throttle
and if sits for over 6-8 hrs even summer day will need some choke to get it started
Years ago I had a dry 400s did the same exact thing too

That sucks, I think mines that way too. The only reason it's a pain in the but is when I am on a really steep dirt hill and need to start it. I then have to hold the front break, press the starter button, and twist the throttle at the same time.
