sounds like a fuel starvation problem, remove fuel tap and check the filter, or worse scenario jets in the carbs are blocked, remedy get the carbs sonic cleaned
Burning oil.
bike should be upright when checking the amount... use an old standard type oil (10w40 motorcycle oil) never automotive oil, you can in an emergency to try and make it home but thats the only time. i think most oil fill caps are located on the right side of the engine and every bike i"ve ever owned it was plastic and black, some have dipstick like yours probably does, or like the newer models that have a little sight glass. Most all bikes take approx 3 qts oil 3.2 qts if changing with filter..after a full drain and adding i put in 2 bottles without question, then wait about 30 seconds let it settle in everywhere, then i pour in another 1/2 right away...then i take a measurement,..you only want to fill it to 3/4 way up the stick or sight glass this way you get into the practice of never over filling. Once it gets to 3/4 mark, start the engine, let it idle for a minute, then check oil level again. Thats it ...hope this was veryhelpful!

Replace head gasket gs650g katana
Whats your question? If asking for directions its pretty straight forward. You remove the fairings then spark plugs and any plugs, I'm pretty sure the tank has to come out on this one then a series of bolts on top of the head to access the gaskets. Make sure you clean any old gasket residue on the head and cover plate without scracthing the head surface to avoid any problems with new one sealing. Then reassemble insuring the gasket sits right and the bolts don't pierce the gasket and being careful not to overtighten the bolts. Its a pretty simple process if your mechanically inclined just take your time and don't rush and you'll be fine..
81 Suzuki GS650GL only runs on full choke
did you drain the gas and put in new? also you need a new fuel filter and you need to be sure you cleaned the carbs completly and put all the air and needles back in the same for each
Need to replace clutch plates
It isn't very hard to change the plates. You will need an impact driver to loosen screws and the clutch spring bolts and center nut. Normally the only plates that need replaced are the fiber friction plates and not the metal pressure plates. Go to
www.babbittsonline.com to see an exploded view of your clutch. Note that the 1st plate and last plate should be a fiber friction plate. Also note that the center nut has a special lock washer. To loosen the nut you must first unbend the spot on the washer that is stopping the nut from turning.
I have 2001 suzuki katana
i would suggest that you put a meter on your ignition switch to see if the voltage is been thrown across the switch then the kill switch make sure its not on ( i know it sounds silly but trust me ive dont it myself) check with meter
just a thought did you check that the battery is fully charged i know its new but some come with hardly any voltage
if all of the above are ok then check the starter relay
Hope this helps

I brought a 99 suzuki
If it needs rings it will be smoking badly will poor performance and lots of "tinging" noises.
I suspect the main jet is blocked or damaged. Strip the carb down and refurbish it.
Hope that helps.
Battery stays charged for about 10 days, then the
You have a battery that has a bad cell maybe, or you may have a short to ground thst is depleting your battery. Charge your battery and disconnect the pos lead and check the battery charge daily. if it falls more than 2 volts over 5 days you have a bad cell and you are probably looking at a new battery. Take a look at the fluid level in each cell. Fluid level that uncovers the plates may be the problem. You have to check the level at least once a month unless you have a maintenance free battery.
I had a flot stuck
I would change the float valve as they do suffer from wear and corrosion, especially if stood for a long time with no fuel.
Starter circuit
these have a complex wiring so get an manual , or check the scribd on the net if any free copy is there
