P650 is hard to start during this cold spell ???

I have the same problem w/ my 650. I just pull the clutch out all the way untill it cranks, then i put the clutch at half for a minute or two then i let it idle w/o the clutch out for 10 minutes in this cold weather.

I think you mean choke??

Does the 700 have a primer? My Honda does, and it makes a big difference in freezing cold weather. Yesterday after a day of riding, it didn't want to start on the trailer with just the choke. A few primes and it started fine.
