Restarting the Engine

If the rider stops the engine by pushing the engine stop switch down, restart the engine using the normal starting procedure. If the engine fails to start using the normal procedure:

  1. Push the engine stop switch down to the OFF position.

  2. Turn the key to the OFF position.

  3. Reset the engine stop switch.

  4. Turn key to the ON position. Wait for the fuel pump to stop running.

  5. Crank the engine up to 10 seconds.

  6. If engine fails to start, repeat steps 1-5.

Extreme Cold Restarting

For better cold restarting performance, do the following after engine shutdown when the engine will be at rest for more than 2 hours and ambient temperatures fall below 0 f (-18 c). This procedure ensures the maximum amount of oil has been pumped from the crankcase to the external oil bottle and reduces cranking friction.

  1. Shut off the engine and wait 10 seconds.

  2. Restart the engine.

  3. Allow engine to idle for 10 seconds. Do not increase RPM.

  4. Shut off the engine.

  5. When starting a cold engine, continue to hold the ignition key in the START position for 3 seconds following first combustion events. Keeping the starter engaged helps the engine continue firing if there is poor combustion due to the extreme cold.
