How Do YOU Start Your Blaster?

Gas on choke on full and i kick it. first or second kick and she is running. i let her warm up alittle before i put choke in then i do a few quick revs and go
 
well.....gas on choke all the way out, nuetral, no throttle, one kick. then i push the choke in and walk away for about 5 minutes. i never ride mine without it being fully warmed.
 
You wanna talk about sucky kick starts? Guy I work with had an old harley (pre-evo) 882 he stripped everything off of it and put 1200 cc jugs and massive cams in it. When he wanted to go anywhere, he had to go outside before everyone else to make sure he could get it running by the time everyone else was ready to go. It actually broke someone's shin one time :o when the kicker popped back... THAT'S a horrible kicker...
 
if it hasnt been running in a week or so- clutch in in neutral 1 or 2 kicks with half choke. knock it into first, ride it out of the shed, put it in neutral and shut off the choke and go put my helmet and goggles on and lock up the shed while it warms up.

if it was running a day or 2 before- no choke, clutch in in neutral 1st kick, repeat above warmup process.

while riding- 1 kick with a small blip of the throttle does it. if it takes more than two... figure out which kill switch i forgot to turn on

In Florida it is useally so warm I never need the choke,

In neutral no choke no clutch first kick and then I let it warm up for about 3 4 minutes and then ride it like i stole it :D
 
1 thing ive always done is feel the exhaust blowing out..when u first start it, it will blow out cold for a min or 2...when it blows out hot, shes ready to go
 
Lately i have not even needed the choke to start it... But usually I will let the piston rotate to the compression stroke then let the kicker all the way up and then give it a whirl.
