Re: Track riding
Yeah I stopped at the dealership on the way back since it was on the way....guy basically said the same thing but he didn't come out and look at it or anything......said if it didn't break when it happened it should be ok.......he said the aluminum BBR shifter would snap if I tried to bend it back but it didn't and I really had to beat on it to get it back into shape.
Should I try to put a breaker bar on the rod and bend it back or just leave it alone? That's really what I was wondering.....

1) Lean the bike over until fuel dumps out of the overflow. Pull choke, use full kicks, and don't twist the throttle.
2)Lean the bike over until fuel dumps out of the over flow, activate the choke, twist throttle 4-6 times (accelerator pump), kick a couple times until bike runs for a few seconds then dies, then twist throttle 2-3 times and kick until it runs.

Re: Track riding
It doesn't help that I am way out of shape. I hear 2 conflicting ways to start a 450.
1) Lean the bike over until fuel dumps out of the overflow. Pull choke, use full kicks, and don't twist the throttle.
2)Lean the bike over until fuel dumps out of the over flow, activate the choke, twist throttle 4-6 times (accelerator pump), kick a couple times until bike runs for a few seconds then dies, then twist throttle 2-3 times and kick until it runs.

It's a 650, but that's still a pretty good price.

Re: Track riding
if it's under 60 degrees my 230 takes a long time to warm up and idle well......gotta leave it on half choke for about 15-20 minutes even above 60......but that's the norm accordning to what I've read on thumpertalk.
