Any tips for cold weather starting? The other day, I was doing some work on my bike and tried to start it up. It was only 32 degrees F. Cranked and cranked and couldn't get fired up. This normal? Anything I should check / try. My closest dealer is 90 miles away.

Have you started it previously this winter? If not allowed to run until the motor warms up, the spark plugs tend to foul.

There is a lot of info on the VMC site in the Technical Help thread about this very problem.

Thx! Last time I started it, I'm sure I didn't let it warm completely up. I just pulled it to another part of my garage. I'll try again and if that doesn't work, I'll clean the plugs. Thx!
