Hot starting or not starting

[DigitalFusion]

I just got my follow up call from Yamaha (thanks for purchasing, how do you like it?, etc). When I mentioned the hot start issue she had no idea what I was talking about, did some typing, and said she had nothing in the system about this issue.

Had the same thing 3 years ago on my Honda Fury motorcycle. Hot start issue with untold amount of bikes and Honda never really admitted to it but replaced a boatload of fuel pumps under warranty. Hope Yamaha is more forthcoming.........

Its not the pump, It's in the tune on the ecu. Yamaha corp office in CA is kinda out of the loop since its a cat ECU and tune. check out this link

Mine is starting well again.

I have been waiting for the fuel pump to cycle and then turn the key until it starts.

A buddy was going to ride it and messed up the start up somehow.

Didn't think it was going to start.

I read from someone on here that they would crank with the kill swich off and then flick it to the on position. Worked like a charm.
