does your bike starts in gear?
because mine looks like doesn't , when I stall and start right away it will start but when I park in gear for few minutes or longer it will not start.

My start does not even work properly... the e-starts on this bikes are a real shit.
I was having problem for some time now, last week i put a new battery and it worked for one ride, but never in gear, only in neutral and only on second stab of the button. |

Yep starts in gear hot and cold. But starting a bike in gear cold is just cruel and stupid. 😜

I guess it depends a bit on kinda of gear oil used.

Clutch plates and oil cause a lot of drag.
For a comparison, just try pushing your bike in neutral, then try pushing it in 1st gear with the clutch pulled in. If your bike starts in gear I think you're lucky, but I wouldn't complain if it doesn't. BTW, mine's an old 2004 and doesn't have electric start. I've heard a lot of people complaining about the electric start being weak. I can only assume this is because GasGas kept the starter motor and battery size down to a minimum to save weight.

I'm kick starter only on my 07, but gear oil makes a difference. With std Motul Transoil I cant kickstart it in gear. But with motul Transoil Expert I can.
