    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

No crank: intermittent, can't find a fault.

My thought also, since I can "break through" with finesse. I have only ever idled it before, i'm not one to rev a sitting bike. My dad bought his Hayabusa new in '07 and trailored it home. He had it idleing before putting the first mile on it and his buddy walks up and twists it to i'm guessing about 6k. My dad almost decked him.

Anyway the carbs had a full service a year or two ago, paper isn't in front of me, so im guessing it won't be too bad. I hate opening carbs.
 
Tomorrow I'm going to do my best at a plug chop in my shop, since the plugs are new and got cleaned today. Then I will likely pull and dip the carbs and if I have time check the valves.
 
Carbs need a good cleaning, going to strip them shortly. The boots are soft and new as they should be but there is a tear in one I saw just before pulling them. It would appear the Suzuki mechanic damaged them putting carbs back on.

And holy cow what a tight fit getting them off.

yea it's a pile of garbage. Was there even a filter there OEM? I usually add one anyway, I like the larger clear ones.
 
Idiots. This is why you won't see anyone work on my stuff.
 
you say you usually add one anyway, so who is the idiot? :lol:

First motorcycle, I would have looked or asked (like i did) but on atv's and stuff you should always add one. the dealer SHOULD have known better.
 
no way am I paying more then $25 for a pair of those boots let alone what I see them going for. I will just repair the one I have till next time they happen to be off.
 
it is, and i would expect so. A little rubber compound would help ensure it

I thought suggesting reusing it was going to get me yelled at.
