Bike is hard to start when cold?

[blanc]

Hi All.

My 10 200 xc has become hard to start when cold. It used to start first kick cold. Plug looks good. I may have messed with the pilot screw, what should stock be for sealevel? My bike has less than 20 hours use so no worn parts and fresh fuel and filter etc

Read the manual about setting the pilot screw and am now confused, the translation conflicts itself. What is stock pilot screw setting?

Any Idea what else could be wrong?

The bike is sorted now. Stock my bike was running 35 pilot answer 175 main just changed the pilot to a 45 big difference, more power and starts first kick. Pilot was too mean stock for sea level.
