That was fast! Ordered on the 17th.

No damage in the shipment. I thought the MCO would be in with the packaging, as I saw an un-assembled on a youtube that did. I contacted Orion to ask.

Drained the shipping oil, put new oil up to the middle of the window, put about 1/2 gal of 91 octane in. Started on the 3rd try.

Ran for a bit, until warm. Stopped, waited, checked the oil level, added a bit. I think what I had to add was what filled the oil cooler.

It won't settle to idle, so I think I will need to mess with the jets and needle position. I expected some adjustment since I am in Denver.

The one thing I don't like is having to pull in on the hand brake, while trying to slightly twist the throttle, and push the starter button.

What's the hand brake thing all about! It is stupid. I learned from a young age to pull in the clutch when starting...this leaves your hand free to twist the throttle a bit.

Does anyone know where I can jump out the hand brake switch?
