I finally stepped up and picked up a '10 570 from Mark at SOS. When I picked it up, we went to fire it up and load it into the truck and it took quite a bit of spinning to get it started, but I thought well it's new and probably has old gas in it. First thing I did when I got home was removed the tank and dumped the gas out, and got new. No difference. Figured I would break it in some and it would get better then.
So let's fast foward to now. I have got 5.4hrs on her now and it's no better at all.
This morning I noted how long it took to get it to fire so I could explain it.
1) Bump starter and let the pump run till it stops.
2) Spin it over for five seconds... it doesn't even hit a lick.
3) Spin it over for four or five more.. it makes a little hiccup out the muffler.. kinda like a backfire but not really.
4) Spin it over again for four or five seconds and towards the middle a hiccup, then it barely starts at the end and settles to a nice idle.
Seem way to much to me as I have had carbed bikes that started way better than this the first time of the day, and a buddy had an 09 450 that starts right up.
Now, past this point, it starts great all day, no issues and fires very quickly, and seems to run great.
What do you guys think? The battery is fully charged and spins it over good.. doesn't seem like a decompressor problem... valves tight maybe from the factory since it did it with 0 hrs on it at Mark's?? Doesn't seem to fit the clogged fuel filter stuff I have seen on here I don't think.
I am not a bike newbie by any means, but I am a Berg newbie. Help!!
