mine is a 07 550. I have to reseal the cases because it has the orange sealant. Its also really hard to start. I think it needs to be remapped but I dont have the tuneboy to do it.

its an 07 but according to aprilla its clean of any problems and its also a 450 so the major seal probs and issues were with the 550 ... this is like a tip over sensor or some sensor issue i think cuz it acts like it wants to start but dont and tried everything and im ass out $650 so far in just them telln me bend over for nothing lol ... got all my stunt parts in now and no bike lol

What is it doing? or not doing?
First check for spark, then fuel. I doubt its compression.

if you have spark, it's your fuel system, especially if it sat for 6 months. Cant leave fuel sit more then 2-3months anymore.
