Hey all, I just got this new (leftover) 2010 KLX 250SF. I absolutely love this bike. I have a question though - when it's warm, it seems to need a bit of throttle to get started again. Otherwise, it runs great. I understand this is a common issue, right? Is it anything to be concerned with?

Thanks!

 

If it starts hot and cold, don't worry. Enjoy the bike. Hanging around here can be hazardous to your wallet.

Welcome and enjoy the SF.

Off road to me is the sidewalk.

Congrats on the bike. One thing about the 2010 is those wheels are killer. I was looking for a 2010 but no local dealership would budge on the price. Mind you, this was about three months ago (2011). I picked up a used 2009 that only had 37 miles on the odometer.

What do you mean, a little bit of throttle to get going?

Mine has a dead spot between 2-3k rpm when I ride after it has been completed cooled down. No matter how long I let it idle, I pull out of my driveway and I roll the throttle it just pauses, almost like fuel has been cut off. Once I ride for a bit (less than .25 miles), there is no more dead spot. No idea why mine does this.

Those blue wheels look awesome!

 

I love blue. I love this motorcycle.
