Hi all,
I picked up my new acquisition last nite (a '92 ZZR 250), but now the bloody thing won't find neutral, which is a bit of an issue as I couldn't keep the thing alive to put my gear on while warming it up to go for a ride tonite. This didn't happen when test-riding it yesterday, nor on the way home. My repeated attempts to start it up after it died also killed the battery. Not cool.
Basically it will only continue to idle when I've got the clutch held in.
Also, when the bike is off, if I put it into 1st and hold the clutch in, I can no longer push the bike around.
Anyone know what is likely to be wrong with it? Or is it down to me just being a munter and not being able to find neutral?
