Stop the bike dying in winter

[darrsi]

So I have had my fzs600 for 4 years now and after very winter when it doesn’t get ridden much, it won’t start it’s basically always the carbs so I taken them out give them a spray and it starts.

How do you stop this happening ? Feel like riding to work tomorrow and I can’t because the fucker won’t start again.

In all fairness I’m tempted to get rid as it has been one problem after another for the past 4 years and now I don’t really trust it, which is sad

Plenty of choke, but the main trick in really cold weather when the bike's been sitting about is hold the clutch lever in when starting it. Makes a big difference.
