I Just Bought a CSC Motorcycle Part 3 Starting Your Bike

[@l.a.raustadt518]

Petcock problem solved, kick starter always a welcome addiction. Every bike used to have them , better than pushing!

[@Zerinsakech]

Honestly this is a valuable skill for any motorcycle rider to learn. It’s funny how many people never have to deal with the choke. Kinda nostalgic really.

[@Psycho-Ssnake]

It seems like you guys really have a great opportunity to get people able to start riding and tinkering. I really appreciate how you guys try to make everything as easy as possible

[@kam3410]

I gotta admit I love this video, I am just a bike admirer and I learned allot in just 5 minutes.

[@jaykoerner]

As far as I know you're actually incorrect about needing a battery to start and run the motorcycle via kickstart, well I don't have this exact bike I do have a carbureted bike with a CG 250 engine, as far as I know they have CDI ignition, so the spark plug actually doesn't have anything to do with the 12 volt system it comes right off the stator, 12 volt systems handled by the lighting coils but even those will supply enough power to run all lights and deal with the load of a completely dead battery at the same time.

[@cscmotorcycles2297]

You are correct, it is capable of starting and running without a battery, but it is not designed to do so and runs rough.

[@jaykoerner]

@@cscmotorcycles2297 I'm assuming it's a dc cdi ignition then? AC is more common but if has any change to the running characteristics it must be a dc cdi box, those are a bit more annoying to get kick started especially with a completely dead batty adding load, regardless it would still be perfectly fine above idle since the rectifier would keep it a decent voltage

[@PublikSerpnt]

Can you please do a break change and clutch adjustment how to video

[@oceanbronze8399]

Lol Best video yet! very funny and informative. Great production, editing, even acting was surprisingly good. Be even better if shown in video how to kickstart from a cold start. When engine is already warm, kickstart fires it up right away. Thank you again for making all these how to vids for your customers and newbies.

[@mintyzee3000]

These videos are so fun and informative. Thank you!

[@rogersmith258]

I'm saving up, hopefully I can buy one soon

[@Noetik5000]

I been contemplating buying one of these.

[@CanTho2022]

If the battery is low, couldn’t he have KICKSTART it instead???

[@cscmotorcycles2297]

Yes, if he has experience kicking one over....still a little difficult on a brand new engine that is wound up tight. It gets much easier after the proper break-in period.

[@CanTho2022]

@@cscmotorcycles2297 ….I just placed the down payment $300 for the SG250. I HOPE AND PRAY that the battery will come fully charge. I live on the Big Island, Hawaii. Your rep told me this morning that it will take 2 weeks to ship to Big Island, Hawaii. Can I kick start it on the new bike IF THE BATTERY IS LOW? There is NOTHING around the port here….or can I jumpstart with my truck??? Please let me know…

[@smartacus88]

Y'all have a great business model.

[@gothops154]

Why not use turn the petcock to reserve from the start? What’s the benefit of using the longer normal tube? Less particulates in the gas that way?

[@davidleonard8369]

The benefit is not having to push your bike to the gas station. Reserve is a wonderful thing.

[@MrCbell57]

Whoa! I just figured out what these extra parts are called. Cool!

[@CODACAIN76]

Wow awesome!!! Info when I get my cafe😅

[@MfrOffroadRiderNorCal]

👍👍

[@goldfish8196]

LOL. Such a good video

[@W0rldCitizen]

Do all the CSC bikes require the use of a choke and petcock? I'm looking at the 2021 RE3 SG400. Thanks!

[@W0rldCitizen]

I see it says "Delphi electronic fuel injection". Does that mean it won't require those two things?

[@cscmotorcycles2297]

Only the bikes with carbs have the choke and petcock, the RE3 is fuel injected so it does not have the choke and petcock. Thanks

[@W0rldCitizen]

@@cscmotorcycles2297 Thanks!

[@houseofgraceworship]

Are those standard handlebars that came with the bike? Or did u have to make a request for those?

[@cscmotorcycles2297]

The handlebars are from our "Scrambler kit" cscmotorcycles.com/scrambler-handlebar-kit-for-sg250/ kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6Wtpn2pmtt3iZY

[@beaubrummelmotorizedbicycles]

Great video for the" noobie" or "neophyte", especially since very few motorcycles today come with a carburetor but, if they need this type of elementary walk through, maybe they shouldn't be riding a motorcycle in the first place. First read your owners manual and all info sheets. And most important do not use automotive oil or synthetic oil in bike when breaking in. Always run a dedicated 10 W -40 motorcycle oil designed for a wet clutch. Using car oil or oil with any friction additives will ruin your clutch and won't allow your rings to fully seat.

[@entropygun3661]

What happens if you forget to turnoff the petcock valve after shutting off the bike?

[@jaykoerner]

If your needle seat and float are all adjusted correctly/clean, then absolutely nothing, your carb will fill up to level stay there and shut off the gas

[@rickg.5171]

What's the bike length? All that I find listed is the wheelbase.

[@cscmotorcycles2297]

On SG250, from the tip of license plate holder to the tip of front tire is 76 1/2".

[@rickg.5171]

@@cscmotorcycles2297 thank you.

[@rhshel]

too bad they stoped making the CSC classic 150cc

[@chrissinclair8705]

If you don't know how to start a carbureted motorcycle, perhaps you should get an ebike instead. CSC makes a great electric motorcycle.

[@Twerkulies]

Everyone has to start somewhere. A Navy Seal isn't an expert at war from the start.

[@lobolj53]

Foulding??? Hmmm...
