I have an 04 FZ1 with 19k miles, it starts OK 75% of the time, but sometimes it's a bit hesitant.
On a coupe of occasions, it failed to start at all and drained the battery, when I put it on charge, it started first time.
When it's hesitant, it usually takes two or three attempts to start, and I have to let the engine idle for a couple of mins until it settles. Sometimes it just fires up first time and is good to go straight away.
When it's been standing at work on a hot day, it starts, but it take a lot of cranking.
When it's cold, I use about 3/4 choke, when the weather is hot and the bike is cold, I use about 1/4 choke.
Is there a mod that will make starting consistent?
