Why does my WR450 not start when warmed up?
Once the bike is warmed up it starts easily using the electric starter. I figured that if there was some kind of short or voltage drop to the ignition system when using the electric starter that this would be a consistent problem even if the bike is warmed up but electric starter works fine when the bike is warmed up.
Are there any issues with my 2003 WR450F dirt bike?
My brother has a 2003 WR450F, lately it has been acting up and having a few issues. 1st: It is crazy hard to start, after about ten or so hard kicks it finally starts. Electric start, Forget about it. 2nd: once it is started it runs crazy hot. Just sitting on the stand running for about 30 seconds it is already red hot.
Can a roll start start a WR450 bike?
If I use the kick starter or roll start it, it starts up quickly. Once the bike is warmed up it starts easily using the electric starter.
How long does a WR450 battery last for?
Usually 3-5 years is pretty much the best you can hope for for retaining the maximum cold cranking amperage in a battery, especially if it sits for long periods of time (not used several times a week) Check the voltage output with a meter and see what you find there.
