Ive been tossing around the idea of an fcr for my 01 650 for the better part of a year. This spring my bike has been an absolute bi#<£ to start. My usual ritual used to have it lite in three kicks. This year, it has been upwards of 40 kicks. Then it runs fine and restarts first kick. I figured I couldn't go through the season like this. The other evening it just would not go. Got pissed, ordered an fcr I had been eying on eBay, ordered a jet/ needle kit from Taffy and decided it was time. Went out to try the bike later from dead cold. Modified my start procedure from 5 kicks no ignition or compression to 10 kicks. It lit first kick oh well, everything is on its way.
