Hard to start motor

[ParadoX999]

Ive recently changed to a CNS carb and although I feel the increased power, Ive noticed a new problem with the bike. Im not sure if this is related to the carb or just coincided with the timing of the change, but now it takes a good effort to start the bike. I live on a hill and this hill was sufficient to go 20-30 feet and the motor would start. Now it takes a few tries. On flat grounds I need to do 2 to 3 full sprints and then popping the clutch,when it used to only require 1.

Anyone have any ideas on this one? Is this related to the carb or can it be a spark plug or CDI issue?

Thanks in advance!

Seeing how you just changed the carb; I would think that your new starting problem is from the new carb!

Any clue on how a carb can be adjusted to avoid this from occurring?

Make the idle/low speed circuit richer and/or use more choke/prime.
