Hey people,
Any FZR owners out there who've had the following problem?
On starting up, the engine sort of turns over (in a jerky sputtering way) while throttle is held slightly open, but won't idle or rev higher than 1000-1500 rpm. The bike's been back from 2nd visit to mechanic (for this prob) for only 3 weeks now and its reoccurring. Had the carbs totally overhauled and got new plugs.
I had thought that the oldish air filter might have been richening up the mixture and fouling the plugs so I changed the filter and cleaned out the plugs (they were a bit sooty and oily), but it doesn't seem to have made a difference.
Any suggestions? PS: I'm on the lookout for a FZR600/YZF600 engine too (with all the attached bits).
