Hey Guys,

This is my first post as I am brand new to the forum, and am grateful for any insight that you can provide.

That being said I am having a starting problem with my 1980 CB750F supersport. When I go to start it up (more often then not it is cold out aka 30-50 degrees) It takes several attempts to get the engine to start running. The electric start works fine and I can hear the engine start to run for a very breif moment then it immediately dies, so I am fairly certain that I am getting a spark. But Only on the fourth or Fifth time of trying to start it will (with the choke out) come to life and stay running. I know that its an old bike, and that cold mornings are going to be trouble, but I find it hard to believe that when this bike was new it was as hard as this to get going.:D

Thanks Guys
Dan
