smirnoff Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 New rider, I have a 600 genesis that will not start, it backfires only. the engine is turning over. Ran fine before I went offshore but my mate could not get it to start on my return. It has been suggested that it is just damp on ignition system and plugs. Any ideas would be appreciated. Mark
