Monster 659 Owner's Manual page 70

Allow the engine to start on its own, without turning the
throttle twistgrip.
Note
If the battery is flat, the system automatically disables
operation of the starter motor.
4) Set the start lever in the vertical position (A) to reach the
idle condition of approx. 1,400÷1,500 rpm.
Important
Do not rev up the engine when it is cold. Allow some
time for the oil to warm up and reach all points that need
lubricating.
5) Subsequently, move the cold start lever (A) gradually
towards its vertical position as the engine warms up. Once
the engine is at normal running speed it should idle smoothly
with the cold start lever completely closed.
High ambient temperature (over 35 °C/95 °F):
Follow the same procedure described for "Normal ambient
temperature" without using the cold start control.
Cold ambient temperature
(less than 10 °C/50 °F):
Follow the procedure described for "Normal ambient
temperature" extending the time for engine warming up
(point 5) to 5 minutes.
