SOURCE: 1997 yamaha yzf 600r electrical problems

a jump box is nothing more then a battery with leads on it so where are you connecting it verses the new battery you put in the bike. that doesn't make since unless you are connecting the box right to the starter motor then it be constently running the motor untill you unhooked it. check all your fuses and examine all wire harnesses for damage, burns, or any mellting.

SOURCE: 98 yzf 600R..Right fork leaking. Problem and fix?

it sounds like your fork seal has failed,it wont affect your brakes but will make your front suspension feel a wee bit "soggy"and will affect your handling,i would suggest getting the seal replaced as evetually the oil from the faulty seal will contaminate your brake pads that will affect your braking performance,replacing the seal,sooner rather than later ,would be a wise move..hope this helps...cheers

SOURCE: Carb Sync on an 01 YZF 600R

Here is a diagram showing the tubes you connect your vacuum gauges to.

The YZF600R is carbureted, so I do not know what you mean by throttle body adjustments.
Synchronizing carburetors means adjusting the throttle plates (butterflies) so that all cylinders are drawing the same amount of vacuum.
Here is a diagram of the carbs. Screw #31 is the screw used to change the sync.
http://216.37.204.203/Yamaha_OEM/YamahaMC.asp?Type=13&A=326&B=13
Remember one other key point, all carbs are sync'ed to the #3 carb. You cannot change the vacuum (directly) on #3. It is usually best to start by syncing #2 to #3, then #4, then #1. Changing #2 can affect the sync on #1 so you definitely want to do 1 after 2 no matter what. If you have one cylinder WAY out of sync, that would be an exception to the previous rule where you would want to attempt to get that cylinder in the ball park of the others before fine tuning each cylinder.
Syncing the carbs is an alternating process between adjusting the vacuum then adjusting the idle. If they were out of sync, bringing them back in, or even getting close, can cause the idle to raise because the engine isn't fighting itself anymore. Always keep the engine idling @ 1100 rpm's while syncing.

SOURCE: only idle with choke on

Sounds like you have blocked or partially blocked pilot jets,
this can happen if bike has been sitting anf fuel has gone stale in bowls or contaminated fuel in tank.
hopefully bike if well serviced or could be caused by air leaks or even tight inlet valve clearance if bike has done a lot of miles

Yamaha YZF 600R Thundercat. How to reset limp mode please?

Question edited to add a lot more clarity.
Question moved from Cars and Trucks to model category.

First you connect a scan tool and read the codes. Then the code tells you WHY you are in Limp Mode. Then you fix whatever is wrong and the scan tool rests the code. Limp Mode is ONLY activated if something is wrong that can catastrophically damage the engine. You don't just turn it off and hope for the best.

2001 yamaha yzf 600r the key is turned to lock

you need to take the pressure off the steering, example, hold the steering just slightly off the full left or right position. Wiggle or move the handle bars slightly and try turning the key. Sometimes there may be too much pressure on the steering lock for it to move, Also some thing eles to try, try pushing down on the key as you turn it. Hope this helps.
