I am extremely new at this, and I might be an idiot, but I can not get this machine to start. I just got it two nights ago, and I had the guy drop it off and I drove it off the trailer myself. I turned on the ignition, pushed the start button, it fired right up and I drove it in the garage and shut it off. I was in a hurry so I didn't really ride it at all. I have since tried to start it about 4 times for about an hour each time and it won't start. I assume it was warm when I started it the first time, since he had to drive it on the trailer. I am in MN and it's getting a little cold now so it's probably going to stars harder, but what am I missing? I have drained the battery from turning it over all 4 times and I am lost. I have the stop switch in the run position, key on, in neutral, tried with choke, without choke, half choke, with throttle, without, ?????? I didn't think it would be so difficult. It seemed to be running perfectly fine so I could use some help if anyone can help me figure it out.

Thanks

Try push starting it. Put it into first gear, hold the clutch, and run beside it . then release the clutch. if this does not work try pushing the start button while releasing the clutch. Sorry if this does not help. Good Luck

uhhhh MAKE SURE THE GAS SWITCH IS TURNED ON (AND NOT ON RESERVE, OR OFF) cuz he might have turned it off and u burned whats left pulling it in, and u just can't start it now. if this doesn't work ,get back to me
