Starting a Yamaha FZR600 '91 model that has been sleeping for more than 10 years. Before starting I clean the carburetors and check the ignition.

Man! I used to DREAM of owning this bike when I was younger.

Those carbs came up brilliantly, although this bike looks way too good to just be used as spares. I rebuilt my FZR600 recently. Mechanically now all good (I used a Yamaha BT1100 rear shock as I was doing this on a budget, the BT1100 shock fits and is only very marginally longer with a very marginally stiffer spring - and all the used FZR600 shocks I could find looked like they had spent 20 years in the sea), but the bodywork is tatty. Mine ran badly at first. Spent ages on it. Turned out the carb rebuild kits I used were useless, and better quality rebuild kits and the original idle jets cleaned up fixed that problem.

Brings back memories. My first big bike was a new 93. I might have to add one to the collection

I also have a '89 one. I hope to start the restoration next year. I bought this one to serve as donor bike. Have fun restoring yours!

Thanks for your comment. I have drained all the fuel from the carbs and lines for winter storage.

@jh-tech5546 You can clean carbs because they're alloy it's the carb gaskets and floats can get eaten away by horrible old fuel , I alway liked fzr

Nice! Good job on the carbs...a solid cleaning in the ultrasonic cleaner makes them work like new.

Enjoyable video as always :) question, what did you spray the seals with on 7:30?
@jh-tech5546 Жыл бұрын
That was WD40. Could also use silicone grease. Thanks for the comment.

What kind of oil can be poured into this engine
@jh-tech5546 Жыл бұрын
I think it is 10W40 as standard. I recommend special motorcycle oil, no just car engine oil. If your engine is consuming oil and you don't drive in cold weather you can probably use 20W50.
@cfb91749 ай бұрын
Best would be 20W50 ! Mineral ! oil.
