Hi there, a few days ago, as I had just finished a U-turn I put both my feet on the floor and for some reason (that I can still not explain) I lost my balance and had to lay my bike on the right side.
I didn't drop it, and even managed to kill the engine with the red switch. I was lucky enough to be helped straight away by someone who saw the scene and the bike didn't stay more than 2 minutes on the floor.
However, when we put it back on its wheels, I noticed some petrol leaking from the 2 tubes seen on the photo (please don't pay attention to the down-pipes: YES I will paint them back to black ^^ ).
It then took me a few minutes before I was able to start it again (had to realize that 1) the kill switch was on 2) the 1st gear was engaged ....).
Now, since then I've noticed that when I try to start my bike when the engine is cold, it takes 2 or 3 attempts before it actually ignites (with the choke ON).
I might imagine something but I'm pretty sure it would start on the button before, whether the engine was cold or not.
I would like to know if it seems normal for you or not?
