So my 05 Viper Mt starts fine when its cold, idles perfect, everything seems to be running good... except when i turn the sled off and then go to start it it will not start without giving it a little gas (starts first pull though). Before I start looking for the needle in a haystack I was hoping the wealth of knowledge on this site may help point me in the right direction. New plugs that show a touch on the rich side but not to the point of looking wet. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
All Yamaha triples I've been around (redhead 700, Viper...4 in total) like just a tiny little bit of throttle to them when you start a warm motor. You can do plenty of searching on this site and find the same thing. Nothing wrong with it, it's perfectly fine.
