Heavens no. In my experiences the R's the most affected of any model. This is because they had the same issues but more cam lift which caused...
I think you've got it all squared away!
That's one of Tom Westby's bikes (or should I say was). Knowing him that bike is in A1 mechanical condition and should not need any service type...
Please do, I'm interested to hear if that solved it.
I'd say it's probably not a dropped valve, the engines with this failure either 1) don't run 2) run but with loud noises or 3) have a large hole...
I might have a front head, drop me an e-mail off list and I'll check in my pile-o-spares. Do you need the whole head or just the parts?
There aren't ANY problems... ...besides the top end oiling problems, fuel pumps and relays that fail, stator wires that melt the connector,...
You know, I've never got this method to work. I've even tried spraying (I use carb cleaner) on an open vacuum port and the idle doesn't even...
I don't have the cop of that magazine article anymore, but they dyno tested a loss of about 1-3hp on the top end. Keep in mind that this only...
That looks like a pretty nice bike, and at a great price! It's got kind of a hodge podge of body pieces but at least they all appear to be in...
The way I think of it there is about an 11:1 ratio. For example: 5000rpm is 55mph (5x11=55). 6000rpm is about 66mph (6x11=66), etc etc. If that...
From your description it sounds like that's what you are talking about. If so the problem is a stuck float, usually something in the needle/seat...
Absolutely, that's an excellent test to see if it's rich or lean because the symptoms are often the same. That's kind of what I was thinking....
It seems pretty obvious to me that the problem is a stuck float. The fuel is leaking from the bowl vent lines, a typical indication of the...
All R6's used a single pipe, can you confirm the donor bike these came from? From the looks of them it might have been a 90's ZX600E. The...
You should try you local dealer first. My dealer can beat the websites listed by about 10% if you factor in the inflated shipping they charge....
You need to remove the idle mixture screws. These are the ones that you can adjust with the carbs installed on the engine. Yes, it does....
The forks will not affect the side of the tire they are on, the whole front end moves together as an assembly. Having a fork, regardless of which...
Per my previous post, it's not the jets. The jets almost never clog up, but the idle circuit does quite often. That is where the smallest...
It's probably not the jets, but I would look at the diaphragms. It sounds like they are not opening enough which is choking out that cylinder....
