I know that you experience sometimes that it is so hard to start your engine specially when in cold morning. There are times that this condition is normal in a motorcycle engine but there are also some problems that may cause this malfunction. If you encounter hard starting in your engine, there are some things that will come in your mind that may cause this problem like poor electricity, starter motor failure or your carburetor malfunction. Commonly carburetor is the most cause of this problem, for some reason your engine wont start easily if the carburetor malfunctions. This are some of the reason or problems that happens in your carburetor.

First thing that you will try is to choke your carburetor for more fuel and air supply. Low supply of fuel is one of the reason causing your engine not to start. Sometimes your carburetor float bowl doesn't have fuel or it may overflow that is why the supply of fuel in the main chamber is not enough to power up your engine. Malfunction in your choke is also a reason when it is plugged or not proper functioning. The inlet system leaks air and doesn't complete the right amount of fuel and air mixture produce by the carburetor. Or your jets passage are clogged and can't supply fuel. The tuning of the carburetor also affects the performance when it comes in starting.

The adjustment of the tuning in the carburetor is needed so that it can supply the right amount of fuel in the engine to make it start. You can work on it if you have knowledge in tuning or ask someone that is expert with it like mechanics. Check for clogged passages of fuel and air to make sure that supply of air and fuel is enough and make sure to clean the passages or replace them if needed. Make sure that the drain plug is close to prevent the fuel in float bowl from running out. Make sure to heat up your engine before riding your motorcycle for better performance.
