I was curious if anybody had any idea what might be causing my problem. I recently purchased and 02 blast with 450 miles on it but it was been sitting for a couple of years, since i've gotten it i have changed the oil and the spark plug. Right now it gets down to around 60F at night and if the bike has been sitting for awhile it takes forever to get it started, once it's warmed up though it has no problems, but just that first start takes maybe 10 minutes or so.

The Blast has some sort of automatic choke.
That could be the issue.

I had an 02 Blast that did the same thing especially when it was chilly out. I would have to roll it into the sun and let it sit there for a while to get it started for the first time that day. Sometimes I would run a hair dryer on it. Have no clue why it worked but it did.
