    was the bike sitting for a few months? if so, did it run ok prior to the break?



    anything in the exhaust pipe or in the air cleaner (i have seen mice make a nest in there) to cause it not to breathe?



    and its happened before where a friend poured diesel into his tank when he thought he was buying gasoline.

Hi, each lead has the specific number on it. if you do this correctly then they genrally give you an idea to where the sit in the coils( the way they bend :-) ) also i believe the coils are better off been attached to the frame once you are sure leads are in corect order and possitioned correctly in the coils.i just presumed the coils neaded earthing. make sure battery is pleny charged as a bad battery can just hinder. it is also very easy to flood the bike so just check the plugs again. if they are unusually wet then dry them off and try again . otherwise maybe try cleaning all electics.

hope this somehow helped

Try the wires from the coils as when you constantley rub them back and forwards when changing plugs for instance,mine became worn and i cud get the bike to run on 3 cylinders then 4 simply by bending one of the 4 coil wires

The carburetors need to be completely disassembled and soaked in a carb specific solvent. Just blowing out the carbs will not work. If there is a local shop you deal with , ask them how much they would charge you to soak your carbs for you. Or you can go to napa or any other large car parts house and get a 1 gallon can of carb cleaner...which is very different than the stuff that comes in an aerosol can. It will run you about 50 bucks for the gallon of cleaner and it comes with a basket in it. If you tear down the carbs you will be able to soak each carb body...But only one at a time. The carbs have tiny orifices that become plugged or restricted and soaking them is the only fix. Make sure all the rubber is out. O-rings...And when they go back together they will have to be synchronized.

Sounds like you have got the plug leads on in the wrong order. There is possibly some numbers on the coils, that corralate to the cylinders.


The firing order is usually 1-3-4-2.

    Just a thought, did you have the coils off the bike?

check pulse generator circuit for any opens or shorts..even if you still show a weak purplish/red spark its bad..it must be a big bluish/white spark..check plug #1 for spark and then check #3 foe spark if there both week then its your pulse generators that are bad ..but if one of them has a blushish spark then it that systems coil..eg #1and#4 or the #2and #3 coils..

My honda cbr 600 wont start and keeps backfireing

Check your plugs. If all four are sparking then your carbs are out of sync. They will need to be re-balanced.

If you are capabable in doing this job your self, you will need a screwdriver that fits your adjuster screws and a CarbTune Carb balancer.
Remove your tank and airbox.
You should see the flaps inside your carbs. These should open when you move your throttle.
Start on the outside carbs to get them balanced with the 2 centre ones.
To start, unscrew the adjusters all the way out. then screw them in until the 2 outer carbs move at the same time as the inner 2 carbs
Once this is done then adjust the centre balancer to syncronise the 2 left hand carbs to the 2 right hand carbs.
Now if you have done this correctly, all four carbs should open at the exact same time.
If you have a Carbtune balancer, remove the plugs from the top of your inlet manifold and plug in the hoses from the carbtune balancer.
Start the engine and adjust the screws until the weights inside the Carbtune balancer all read the same.
Once done, remove the balancer, replace the plugs into the inlet manifold, refit the airbox and tank and it should run so much better.

If your not 100% confident to unertake this job yourself, take the bike to your local dealer and ask to have the carbs balanced.

Bike wont turn over

I have a 1996 cbr 600 f3 and when I first bought it used it would not turn over for the life of it. It turned out that a major problem was the spark plugs needing to be replaced. Thats the first thing to do. Next clean out those carbs with some good carb cleaner.
