So every spring, my '92 is a tough starter. I set the fuel to "prime" and wait for a couple minutes, but it requires about 3 minutes of cranking spread over a 5 or 6 minutes period to get it to start. It does this every year, then starts perfectly the rest of the year.

Any tips? Is there any cheats? I have a can of Quik Start, but I can't see how to spray it into the carbs without disassembly. The bike is in my shed which has limited room to tool.. I have to start it to get it up to the garage FML. :D
