Hello

Rebuilt my px 200 e
New piston crank and all bearings, got it installed trying to pluck up the currage and start it

Any tips on starting it for the first time, my only thoughts is to run it low revs slightly alternating speed for a while then take it out for a gradual slow speed trip

yes ,1 tip , kick it ,kick it really hard? .
actually , kick it over a few times with no plug ,get things moving ,a few times more with plug in but ignition off .then check ya chokes full on an go for a start ,rev as little as possible to stop it dying til tickovers adjusted an let it warm up on the stand . H

CHeck all the gears and clutch work before you start it too.
Go easy on the throttle
good luck
