My experience motorcycles are like women. They all have their own attitudes and you have to learn what it likes, because every one is different. First off I find it much easier to start when it is in neutral. when I stall my bike I always just give it one or two baby kicks to try and clean out the cylinder. Then I kick it like I mean it. Sometimes mine starts with the hot start and sometimes it doesn't. Just know that you are experiencing a common problem with the early year four strokes. They run like a raped ape but god love you if you stall it. I also found that if you are in hurry that bike will take 50 kicks to start. If you take your time and remain calm it is only 3 or 4 kicks.
