Honda CBR250R 89

Hey i just got a honda cbr250r and im kinda new to biking and iv found that if i leave it for round a week then go to ride it iv had massive issues getting it started but once it decides to start nd warms it seems to be fine till i leave it for a while again is this a common problem or am i doing something wrong because when i brought the bike they cleaned out the carbs

[Mr. Peanut]

Explain further, does the bike have trouble turning over? Or does it just take a long time to start?

How long does it take?

hey thanks it has no problem turning over it just wont start and when it ocasionaly does it hits idle revs then cuts out. this usualy continues for 3-5mins till i can rev it hard when it starts ideling then it starts to idle normally except i cant get it over 8000rpm till its been running for a few mins

Are you using the choke? If so, it may just be a case of learning where your bike likes it to be set when cold-starting.

[Mr. Peanut]

Perhaps this article may help you.

choke dident help and it cold starts fine for a few days after it has been used its just when it has been left for a while it dosent like starting

btw i read that article and the dealer cleaned the carbs and it does actualy run allot better since they did that
and it purrs like a kitten once it has been rinning for a few mins its just getting it started

Most people are not able to leave the throttle alone when cranking. Try full choke and absolutely no throttle until it has fired.
Another option is to pull the plug after trying one way of starting and checking whether the plug is wet or black & adjusting the proceedure accordingly. Good luck

iv tried full choke before nd that diddent help. how do i check the plug

[nadroj]

Then look at the motor end to see if it is wet with fuel. If it is then it's more likely to be not enough volts to fire the plug. Clean the battery terminals and the starter & earth connections as the better the connection the more voltage will get to the plugs.
If it's dry then it's a fuel delivery problem.
The choke restricts the airflow to make a richer mixture for start & warmup.
