Hard to Pull Start 2012 ProRMK 800

[GoBigParts]

Rode all day yesterday and it pulled over fairly easy. It seems to pull extremely hard the colder it is out and the longer it sits. End of the season valves were pulled by dealer and bellows were replaced. I supposed a spring could have broke since then.

This may sound dumb, but I've had better luck with several short, easy pulls on the rope rather than trying to start it like it's warm. It's easier on the shoulder for sure.

My 12 is the same way and my 08 dragon 700 is the same. Typically when they are hard to pull over when that cold means they have good compression. I often have to bump my throttle also to get the gauge to come on. I wouldn't worry bout it unless u have running issues. I would guess if u were to check compression between your and your friends sled u would have more just my 2 cents.
