Suzuki RM-Z250 Owner's Manual page 17

When the engine is already warm or restarts:
1) Pull the hot starter lever 1.
2) Kick down the kick starter lever slowly from the top position
until engine compression resistance is felt, release the kick
starter lever from this position and allow it to return to the
top. While keeping the throttle closed without using the
starter knob/idle screw, depress the kick starter lever
strongly through the full stroke. Never open the throttle dur-
ing the kick start operation.
3) Return the hot starter lever back immediately after the
engine starts.
NOTE:
If the engine fails starting, open the throttle fully and depress the
kick starter lever slowly about 4 – 5 times to clear too rich fuel
mixtures in the engine. Then, kick the engine over, leaving the
throttle closed with the hot starter lever pulled in.
Racing the engine in neutral will exceed the engine speed limit. Exceeding the engine speed
limit can damage the engine moving parts.
Do not race the engine at high speed to avoid the engine damage.
