Top 20 1998 kawasaki ZZR 1100 Questions & Answers

Hey Heinrich, Sorry.. but it sounds like the problem is still your carburetors. I would replace the spark plugs AFTER you have a Qualified Professional clean and set your carburetors!! Also have the compression checked on all 4 cylinders....Sometimes low compression will cause a hard starting problem...

check the starter/alternator chain inside the clutch casing as the tensioner has a habit of breaking...

Yes!

Same tank from 1993 to 2001

Is thebike leaking? If not your rings are fooked.

The problem is the tank is not uniformly shaped, narrower near the bottom. As the fuel drops below the widest parts into the narrower parts, it drops faster. This is something you are probably going to have to live with.

Normal setup is 36 front and 42 rear

It may be dirty carbs try cleaning them and make sure non of the jets are clogged

sounds like the fuel sending unit in the tank and the temp sensor is probably bad or grounded out

Try keeping them in proper position for a while, if thats how it became, the reverse idea should work.

Always very frustrating when you have an issue like this. Just to recap on my understanding what you have ruled out: - not a battery issue as you have a car battery linked up!? - not the starter motor as you have tried a second one!? - rotation is only slightly better with the plugs removed ( trust this is all four? ) My suggestions would be: 1) remove all the plugs and with the bike in neutral, remove the timing cover at the crank and turn the crank clockwise and see how much resistance you get over a few full revolutions. Everything should move nice and easy, if it does not then there is something mechanically wrong in the engine. 2) when did you last change the oil and filter? I would suggest you do this to ensure you do not have a load of sludge in there which will certainly add lots of resistance when cranking a cold motor. 3) is it possible you are experiencing clutch drag? When cranking the bike pull the clutch in to ensure the clutch is truly disengaged and not dragging. Try the above points and let me know how you get on. redzed.proboards.com

from what year it is?

If you can smell coolant in the exhaust steam, I am afraid you may have a leaking head gasket.
