My 03' is one cold hearted bitch!

[Pincushion]

My 03 does not like to start when cold. Once I finally get it warmed up it'll fire first kick, but that first start of the day sucks!

 

 

FMF fatties. K&N pods and TORS removed. Otherwise stock.

When its cold I'll choke it and kick, it'll idle very weakly for about 2-3 seconds and then die. I have to do this about 10-15 times until there's a little heat and then I can fire it, turn off the choke, give some throttle and then she'll run. Once warm... it's all gravy.... fires 1st kick.

 

I cannot give the bike any throttle until warmed or it'll flame out

I only ride coastal dunes. Sea level, 60-80f

 

The previous owner did not install idle screws (is this the issue?). I recently bought some, but have yet to install them.

I just recently bought this bike and this is the only issue I'm having. Any advice is appreciated.

Id say you answered your own question. The jetting sounds about right to me. When You install the idle screws I would also reccomend doing a carb synch too, that will help a little.
