Hey guys, srry bout the late response, been working a lot lately =\, but the 250 is fine. I guess it was bad contact just that moment when I was at the gate. Oh but here's another thing, I was letting this girl try my bike out and showing her a bit. Then I get a phone call and she get's a little too excited and tries to accelerate the thing on her own and falls on her "O Ring" =\. Then I realized, the bike won't start after a few minutes. Does that normally happen? If you take a spill, the bike would have to cool itself off first before it's able to turn on or should it run fine right after a slight fall?

I imagine its got to do with the fuel running around at odd angles. But I don't know, mine started right up after I dropped it :D
