hello any zxr owners..... bike (zx750 r l3) has been in bits for 2 weeks & nobhead here left the ignition on... come to start it today, the tacho spins to 6k, relay buzzing etc. hoping it's just a flat battery - it's on charge atm is that normal for a flat battery? i mean the tacho showing 6000 - im assuming it's saying there is 6v charge as it drops to 4.5 when i press the starter. the indicators wont flash either any help appreciated :thumbup:
With the battery disconnected just squeeze the brake lever a couple of times. Dunno if this works but many Skyline owners used to swear on it to discharge any residual charge in the electrics, to prevent the sensitive electric trickery that keeps a Skyline going round corners shiny-side-up getting it's knickers in a twist. Charge battery. Reconnect. And hopefully all will then be good
got it turning over now and tacho is up to 11 it must work like a voltmeter when you first turn it on, just hadnt noticed that before... i'll leave it on charge overnight (and my vtr!) hopefully tomorrow it will fire up and i can get out for a blast! started up ok til i left it switched on all week, was just hoping i hadnt fried the coils or summat, seems ok tho....
it's sorted m8 was just duff battery. ive put the (new) one off my cbx on it and just had it running. sounds fookin excellent lol, very different from my vee! cant rev it tho cos neighbours got a nipper in bed lol - i'll be out on it tomorrow for pre mot test checks cheers for the offer tho m8 - i'm in birchwood btw, just between m62 j11 & m6 j21
Martin, Give me a ring pal, if you need any help with the trackday/roadbike project. Dont mind and love messing about with anything that has an engine, as you know. Wasnt happy with mine yesterday, stripped it last night and put it back together this morning. It goes like fook now pal. I teel theee lad
nice one bud, was wondering how you'd got on - reckon it was just blocked jets then? box of fuel filters here m8 if u want a couple :thumbup:
Think so mate, blew out the jets, took out and reseated the coil packs. Fucking annoying job mind, everything has to come off. I am going to order some panels and rear end from that company,if you let me know what there called again.
