As the thread title suggests...
As the weather seems to be ok at the moment, I've decided to take the bike out as I haven't used it for about a month and a half, maybe almost two now, and not being technically minded, what's the best way to start it?
It's a 2004 Honda CBF600S (44,000 miles), carb and a choke (manual). It's been garaged throughout.
So, it's choke fully out, ignition on, then start.
How long should I press the engine start for without draining the battery if it doesn't start immediately? (which I doubt it would).
Keep the throttle closed or open, or slightly open?
Thanks!
Hope to get it started!
