some dont have them but if there is it should be near the cluch lever

You can replace the exhaust cam with a 2003-2013 exhaust cam that has auto decompression, your bike probably has had some parts switched

You likely know this by now, estart introduction began in 2003.

Wow, thanks! I too thought that the video tutorials could be more descriptive as to what is actually happening.

You likely want to look into performing a leak down test. When you kick down to TDC, it should be really tight. If it’s passing through, I suppose there could be issues with the decompression sticking or little compression. Join a WR owners page on FB, very helpful when diagnosis is in order.

It’s possible just really fkn hard I have a lever and sometimes try it

Yeah dude, this WR was in the same situation. The PO wasn’t aware of correct technique. I researched through video and read so much, then dialed in this technique from a riding buddy who was well versed with a YZ426. Ultimately, I installed stage 1 Hotcams for the auto decompression. Makes a great difference in potential frustration. I also think dialing in the fuel/air screw, jetting, and AP pump make the difference for Consistency. Recently, I began giving 2 full twists before starting with choke on. They say not to touch the throttle but I’ve had a 1 kick machine since November. Toughest part of early WR ownership is stalling and dumping, Frustration mounts anytime you visually see fuel pouring from vent tubes when the bike has been laid over hot. You have to trust in the hot start plunger, do research on clearing the cylinder, especially if you keep the Manuel decompression. PM me through messenger if you would like to talk more.

Oh yeah, I like to clutch a bit more than most, I think. I know the snappy you are referring too. My style feels smooth and I dialed in clutch cable adjustments. Check out the washer mod for the clutch, and all of the free mods. Your bike could be more YZ then you think!

@@andykelly656 I haven't had the clutch cover off yet, but all of the other free mods have been done. I've never ridden a yz250, but my guess is it feels a lot like my wr. Still haven't had it out on the trails... waiting for them to open. The washer mod is to make it easier to find neutral, right? OR are there other benefits?

have a 2001 wr250r . I wanna ride it really bad buts its my first real dirtbike and I cant get it going for the life of me . The valves are adjusted the carb is adjusted. My dad can start it first kick every time hot or cold.but no matter how many times he shows me or I try I cant start the pig I watched the vid a view times but i still cant get it . Any suggestions? .

@@easylee1417 You could try leaving the kickstand down, and stand on the pegs to transfer as much body weight as possible. Mine is pretty easy to kick... so long as you use the compression release. Without the compression release, it's nearly impossible to kick over. Push the kick start down until it won't move, pull the de-comp lever and push the kick start just a tiny amount, release the de-comp lever, and then kick down quickly using your body weight and leg strength. DO NOT twist the throttle until it's idling. Also, pull out the black choke knob when it's cold. Mine starts easy, and it's very hard to kick.

What sounds weird about it?

@@andykelly656 when u start it put it ear near the bottom end and listen

@@jimbobroy5566 Do think this 19 year old motor needs a main bearing? When I did the hotcams install, I replaced the timing chain with flywheel off of course. The crank had a tiny bit of side to side play, but not up and down.

@@andykelly656 still look at MY video of wr 250f that what it should sound like

@@andykelly656 I have an 01 wr250f it sounds like this 👍🏽
