Hi, I've got a Z650 as a first project and wonder if anyone can tell me best way to get it started. Spark getting through to new plugs, have put new battery in. I think must be a fueling problem (bike has been laid up for good few years) am I best to strip carbs??? |

Even a few months without running would gum up the carbs in a motorcycle. Definetively, is first thing you do on a old bike that had not run in a while., clean carbs, maybe change rubber parts, and synchorize them. |
