1992 Suzuki VS 1400 Intruder Questions & Answers
Good battery and fuses no lights or starter nothing
Make sure your battery cables are tight and clean. A loose cable will not let power come through. A corroded cable will not let power come through.Check both cable ends where they are on the battery as well go to the starter and ground on engine
Make sure the battery is up to power as well. Just don't take for granted it is.
After a hard accelaration my 1992 1400intruder lost a cylinder and will not take any throttle now what happened
In absence of other systems like knocking or other engine sounds, you may got lucky and lost the ignition on that cylinder, or lost the valve train. Check your spark. I made a handy tool with a spark plug attached to a battery charger clamp, easy to ground to the engine, attach the lead and see if you have a nice blue spark. If you have spark do a compression test and compare with the other cylinders, a 12 lb loss compared to the others means internal damage.
What tools do I need to remove the front wheel?
you will need a good set of spanners i dont know your size but probably about 22-24 mm and a quality set of allan keys worth getting the best as cheap ones round off and ruin your bike .
the hardest bit is geting the front wheel off the floor a crate under the engine and strap over the back or better a hoist on a strong roof will do. just make shure the bike is rock solid before you work on it.allso loosen the spindle and allen pinch bolts before you lift.
Suzuki Intruder VS400 with UK 'R reg'. It starts every time but soon as you put it in gear to take off it cuts out.
The most likely thing is a sticking clutch. With the ignition off, can you drop it into second gear and push it with the clutch pulled in? You say you put 'new petrol' in, so it sounds like it has been stored for a while. Clutches will often stick as the clutch plates have been under pressure for so long. Fully warm the engine before moving off until the plates free up.And it looks like you probably mean VS1400 not VS400!There is help herehttps://www.google.com/search?q=suzuki+intruder+vs1400+stalls+when+put+in+gear..
When i went to get
This sounds like an issue with your clutch. It looks like you have a hydraulic clutch, so it may just need to be bled. As long as it is something in the clutch actuation, like the master or slave cylinders, it is not all that expensive. However, if it is a problem with the clutch itself, it can be an expensive fix. First thing to check is to see if the clutch fluid reservoir has fluid or not.
