2. Avoid Self Start

Using the kick-start is better than the self-start, especially for the first start of the day in winter.

3. Use the Choke

If your bike struggles to start, use the choke. This helps oil reach the engine, making starting easier.

4. Rev the Engine

Don't move the bike immediately after starting it in cold weather. Rev the engine for a while to prevent stalling.
