i have tried all kinds of things, i have had the starter rebuilt, changed the spark plugs, cleaned out the carbs completely, got a brand new battery, i have good spark and i have the right plugs, and i run premium unleaded through it, i had a friend that thought it might be the cdi ignitor, but i asked a mechanic at a bike shop and he doesnt think so cause the cdi only controls the timing so that wouldnt effect the cold start, so i just dont know
when i bought the bike the guy gave me the old carbs to it because he had bought new ones for it, but when i took the new carbs and old carbs apart recently there were some differences, in the new carbs for some reason the air/fuel mixture screws were covered and i cant get to them, and in the new carbs the needles had a weird taper to them while the needles in tho old one didnt have the taper, so i put the old carbs in the bike while replacing some damaged parts in the old carbs with parts from the old carbs, and it didnt fix it, but it seems to start a little better
i think that i might just need to run the bike a little more and get the old carbs broken in again
ive heard of heating up the oil pan with a space heater and im not afraid to resort to that but if i could just make it start normally it would be great
