Hi from Spain,good to see so many CRM enthusiasts(left),the world seems to have turned against the 2stroke,and DEFRA against everything exept hikers.My bike is a 93 mk2+2,I am informed,had it since 2000.Regards starting,I have noticed the bike starts easier out here,it still needs the choke (especially this time of year)but it will start without a full swing on the kickstart,just three or four prods,which is what I do back in geordieland,before I jump on the lever,lol.

Hi welcome, yes starting when warm is a common trait.
What part of Spain are you located in?

Ah I see, down on the south east. My eldest son and I have just booked a place in the " Vince",which is an orienteering event on wheels. It generally held in the Pyrenees area of Spain.
How much riding is there to had in your area, and what quality is it?
It ain't stopped raining here since I don't know when.

Haven't done as much riding as I would like,you really need to be with a group,or someone who knows the locality.The farmers seem friendly enough,(not like in the UK)but I am a bit wary of the local coppers,and I don't speak much Spanish.I mostly keep the CRM here for friends coming out,I have a KTM as well,so I get out more when I have visitors.The bikes give me something to do,(sitting in the sun polishing)sad I know,lol.
