  2. General Bandit Chat
    Hello all, to give you a bit of background my bandit was sitting for a couple of years after discovering that the exhaust collector had completely corroded and didn't know what to do with it. I have now fixed the exhaust system. Once the bike was running again, the engine felt rough and one of...
  3. ZR-7 Maintenance
    Hello everyone and a happy 2018!! I have acquired a 2001 ZR which was in a sorry state when I collected. So far I have changed the swing arm, front calipers, fork seals and some other bits and bobs and was feeling pretty confident about getting it to run and ride well. It had a problem with low...
  4. ZR-7 Maintenance
    Hey! Just pulled my carbs to clean them, and after strapping them to my intake manifold boots, I realized I couldn't attach the air intake boots on, is there a way the carbs are put back?

  8. Daily Ride
    I have a 2002 ninja 500r that I took for a 125 mile ride yesterday. Everything went fine, ran like a top, parked for the night and when I went to start up this morning it was having an issue starting, got it running and two blocks down the road it started to leak fuel. I pulled over and it was...
  9. ZR-7 Maintenance
    I've perused the various threads here about hard starts, mixture screws, etc... and haven't found what I was looking for, so here goes: The bike does not like to start after sitting over night (choke or no choke, throttle cracked, throttle closed, it doesn't matter). If I ride to a friend's...
