it is not getting fuel, check fuel supply, carbs,etc

Re-jet it leaner.

Check for good fuel flow from carburetor end of fuel line. If no, check fuel tap filter screen inside of tap bowl.

The float is stuck in the bottom of the carb. Remove the bowl, pull out the float and needle valve, and clean the valve and the hole it sits in.

it's .8 "

I personally run 11 psi in the front and 12-13 psi in the rear but it is all based on riding style, technique, and personal preference. What do you mean by shifting pattern.
I think it is
1st all the way down
neutral half click up from first
2nd 1 click up from 1st
and so on.

Headlight should not be your worry. I have a feeling the kill switch was cut for a reason.(faulty)disconnect the kill switch, leave the 2 wires bare and try starting, if no luck connect the 2 wires to each other and try again, thats the only 2 ways a kill switch works so if no luck look elsewhere...Good Luck to you friend....Tim

dear atv owner there is no need to remove the pulleys to replace the drive belt. you must open the large pulley by hand and drop the new belt in bottom of this pulley this will hold it open then pull the belt across to engine pulley then turn the rear wheels in clockwise direction this should force the belt on the engine pulley job done jim

does this model use a chain tensioner? a spring riding on the chain? it maybe broken. you have too much play in the timing chain

hello my friend,, try these guyz out,,there a downloadable web site,, www.repairmanual.com

hi idont believe that you have piston to valve problems as the valves would simply bend, this would then reduce your compression and your m/c would not run correctly .
wot you may be suffering from is just large valve clearance or worn camshaft and or valve gear,however this must be investigated further
hope this is of help ian

has it got an aftermarket 'manual' tensioner fitted ? if so you should adjust it when you hear it rattling.

are you keeping your oil topped up and changed regularly

thats good and also chec plug wires for age... However u may need to rebalance the carbs and cylinders--do u hav a clymer manual!!

It is is firing out of the carb and the exhaust, the timing must be off, but also slipping. Is the flywheel tight? https://www.google.com/search?q=1984+kawasaki+klt+250+backfiring+problem ..

Absolutely, the rectifier on your Kawasaki Mean Streak 1500 can be repositioned during a customization project. The rectifier is a crucial part of the motorcycle's electrical system, converting alternating current (AC) from the stator into direct current (DC) to charge the battery and power the bike's electrical components. While relocating the rectifier, it's important to consider a few key factors:

1. Space and Mounting: Assess the available space on the motorcycle to find a suitable location for the rectifier. Ensure that the new position allows for proper mounting and secure attachment without interfering with other components or the bike's functionality.
2. Heat Dissipation: The rectifier generates heat during operation, so it's essential to relocate it to an area with adequate airflow for cooling. Mounting it in a well-ventilated area helps prevent overheating issues.
3. Wiring and Connections: When moving the rectifier, ensure that the wiring can be appropriately rerouted to reach its new location. Take care to maintain proper electrical connections and ensure a secure, stable wiring setup.
4. Protection: Consider adding protective measures, such as shields or guards, to safeguard the relocated rectifier from road debris, water, or other potential hazards.

Modifying the placement of the rectifier may require custom brackets, mounts, or fabrication work to secure it in the desired location. It's crucial to execute the relocation carefully, maintaining proper electrical connections and ensuring the rectifier's safety and functionality. If you're not confident in performing these modifications yourself, consulting a professional motorcycle mechanic or technician with experience in customizations can be highly beneficial. They can offer guidance, expertise, and ensure that the modifications are carried out safely and effectively.

Question edited for clarity and add maker. Question moved from 'Power Motorcycles' to model category. Various idea here. Best thing is to get it to a motorcycle electrician for diagnosis. It could be the trigger sensor connected to the CDI.
