Gidday folks,
Have aquired a gsxr 250 for my project bike, and can't get it started. Sposed to have done around 40k.
Interesting thing is it sounds like it wants to start when turned over, makes a slight popping noise. Spark is ok, fuel is getting to carbs(float bowls have fuel in them), compression also seems ok, cant figure out why it wont start.
Is there a chance I hooked up the electrics wrong, and its sparking at the wrong time? Also I covered the exhaust while turning over and felt suction pulses, could the starter motor be turning it the wrong way?
Any help would be great,
Stefan
