how do I get my Husky to start first second kick?

well so far I have destroyed 2 sets of shoes and my finger from the kick back. When i first bought the bike (husky 570smr) It was meant to be a runner but when it arrived it hardly started with a push start but it run but it was impossible to start it with a kicker. Took the flywheel off and the magnets looked fine to me but the stator plate was shifted to the right for some reason, so i bolted it on back in place where the marks are , now it occasionally starts with the kick start but still a big pain to start. what can be done to have it starting nice and easy first second kick?

the stator plate was shifted? sound like your timing is out of spec..i would start there. when you move the stator plate a very small amount its a big change in timing

yes i know. got it back to original spec. now got to play with the carb hopefully that will sort it out

sharp left kicker by the way! some strong swede genes in that one! hope you get it sorted, looks like a fun bike

thanks man. gonna play with the carb a little today to see if i can get it starting better

My buddy used to race an '01 TE570, an never could get the hang of starting it, or the carb dialed. I think that is the only year of the Mikuni carb, and the reason there was only one year. I believe '02 had the FCR, and I know they had Dellorto through 2000.

2002 also had the mikuni and they continued to use it thru 2004 on the 250/450/510.

i have got the dellerto one. kehin was put on them 02+ nothing i can do that makes it start better, i guess i have to leve it like it is, i have to kick it over about 15 times untill it starts up, hopefully with time i will get the hang of it or come up with a solution

I've been riding left kickers w/dellortos for years. Here's an old post on my starting drill.

I had all kind of problems with my stock delorto, on my TE 410 98''.
The problem was solved as soon as I installed a Keihin FCR 39 from a KTM 520.
No more overflow inside the cylinder issues, very easy start, also improved my overall bike performance!!
It's no straight fit, but relatively easy fit.

Recomended upgrade for all delorto owners......

What's involved in fitting it? New boot, but what else?

First you will have to remove only the Choke plastic lever as it hits the inside of the tank and plug the hole with metal part of the choke.

Second remove all the side screws for washers pipes & the washer pipes.

And third in order to fit the carb you have to rotate it a little bit to the left.
It also may require to heat the inside of the tank to make some more room for the carb to fit well.

I can post some pics if you like, in order you to see how it's bolted on the bike.

Please add pictures. As I am considering to change my stock Delerto to a 41mm. Keihin FCR on a 1995 610 TC

yes thats what i have been doing got it to start a bit easier.kick it over with the choke on lightly about 4-5 times till it pops and thurn the choke off and give it a nice kick or 2 and it runs :P but im still thinking of changing the carb, i couldhave bought the mikuni 41mm but missed out on that, now wondering with the fcr 39 have you got any pictures of how it sits? and where to get a rubber boot to fit the carb? or would it be fine in the standard one?

Ok , I will post some pics probably in the weekend.
As for the rubber boot, my mechanic that fitted the carb, told me that the stock one might fit as well.
He used one from a TE 570 SMR, as my stock one wasn't in good condition.

Sorry I didn't have time to wash the bike......

Ok here you go...

















I hope that helps.

That looks like the stock boot, good to know.

I ended up putting on a different carb . Someone listed a mikuni flat side I thought it was the tmr 41 without checking it and bought it. Turns out it's a 40 mikuni flat side of a ktm 640 and it's set up for the husky as the guy had it on his 610. It starts with 2 3 kicks so I'm quiet pleased with it. Haven't got the throttle cables yet so I can't see if there is any difference but I think it's going to be alot smoother . I will let you know and post some pics up

Now if I knew it was a bst 40 of a lc4 I wouldhave bought the 39 fcr for the same money
