Dont know how long it has been between rides, but if its been a few weeks you might need to clean the pilot jet. Spray the crap out of it with carb cleaner, and try and get a small wire in there too, but dont scar the pilot. Carb cleaner should do it by itself if you cant find a small enough wire. I had a CRF80 and it seemed like the pilot clogged fairly easy. I also had to richen the needle 1 pos. I ended up running Stabil fuel stabilizer in the fuel almost all the time just to keep it running right. This will keep the fuel from crystallizing in the pilot and clogging it. I just mixed the Stabil in my 5 gal can every time.
