In the first post it is stated that the pilot screw is set at 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 turns out.....That is too lean to start good cold.My bike was the same way till I adjusted the pilot screw with the bike idling warm for best idle. (About 3 1/2 turns).....The bike than started much easier when cold & you could easily tell the difference in the exhaust tone.....These bikes are extremely lean from the factory causing hard starting cold.
