After fiiting a new clutch cable and clutch return
Take off clutch lever. If it engages fully, check for a worn bearing in lever. Otherwise you have adjusted it improperly or the least possible cause, you did not install spring properly. If when lever is off and clutch still does not engage, remove cable from spring.If clutch engages you either have a faulty cable or somehow you have it bent to far or pinched it..
So i bought a batt for my 1999 suzuki katana 750 i
Put the battery on charge - while it is charging remove and clean the sparkplugs - once the plugs are clean and refitted also make sure all the HT leads are secure - check the fuses, have a once-over of all the connectors and cabling and make sure everything is dry and secure.
Likely the battery was never fully charged to begin with - but still clean the plugs since they will be fouled from the non-starting.
When i turn the key, nothing happens, not even
when purchasing a brand new battery usually you have to fill it with acid then you actually have to charge it, you just cant hook it up and go. after doing that double check the battery cables make sure it has a solid ground then i would check the fuse box and make sure all the fuses are good then i would check the ignition switch make sure nothing is grounding out. hope this helps
How to ease front caliper pistons on gsx750f 1999
I had this problem with my 900 Diverstion, the piston wouldn`t move and the pads weren`t in contact with the disc allowing it to rust. What I did was I got a thin screwdriver and dipped it into engine oil, placed the screwdriver over the slot between the caliper and piston (This minimses oil getting on the disc and pads) then I got some gas pliers and slowly pushed the piston back, Make sure you do this evenly by moving the pliers around pushing on different parts of the piston so that it goes back into the caliper straight or you`ll damage both the piston and caliper. I repeated the numerous times by pressing the brake lever, this brought the piston back out. Keep an eye on the brake fluid level andDon`t let it come out too far or you`ll have a hell of a job getting the piston back in to the caliper and then you`ll have replace the seals and you`ll have to bleed the system. If your bike is like mine with a double front disc, only remove one caliper at a time because you`ll push the piston out of the other caliper as well. I did this about 12 months ago, I`ve had no problems since and it`s passed an MOT since. I hope this helps. Ian
GSX750FX running problem
needs the carbs cleaned out, and possibly some new spark plugs. If it has been over 4K since the plugs were changed, they need replacing also.
Suzuki gsx750f not sparking
Good possibility, You can check the out put voltage of the pickup coil. This has to be done with a "peak reading volt meter". There are some commercially available adaptors to insert in a standard volt meter for this check. With adapter installed, meter set to DC volts the reading across the leads from the pick up coil should be 3-7 volts at cranking speed. You should also confirm that you have battery voltage with the key & engine stop switch on at the cdi box as well as a good ground. I believe on a Suzuki this will be the orange/ white for battery voltage and the black will need to have contininity to ground. Also the orange/white at each coil should have battery voltage with key and engine stop switch on.
