wow time flies when your reading 15 page posts on why a 750 wont start:shock:

[Ironriot]

Did the thread go anything like this, "My bike won't start whats wrong with it?" lol. On another forum I used to chill at (it was a kawa forum shh don't tell the others) that's the only question that ever got asked.

So I assume yours isn't starting? Or just learning some knowledge for a future day?

[neil young]

it started after about 5 mins of almost constantly hitting the starter button.i have to take the carbs apart and have a look

[Ironriot]

I assume you already checked for spark and fuel? And what about the choke?

[neil young]

i added new plugs,new NGK connectors,new wires and caps.
i have lots of spark,fuel flow and the choke seems to be working.but fuel sat in the carbs to long.they are varnished for sure.i added new gas and one third of a can of Seafoam.i have other issues that need to be addressed as well.it was running before it sat for a year or two.

Ah sounds like its time for a card rebuild

[TheCafeKid]

it was running before it sat for a year or two.

Isnt that always the story?? LOL Indeed it sounds like time for a rebuild...There is an excellent rebuild tutorial on the BS carbs in the GSR Garage section if you've never dealt with these before..and considering you have all those pretty Hondas, i dunno if you have. I've also got a fairly clean set....\\/

well after a chilly ride today on my 550 i thought screw it.a friend of mine who has a gs 500 and myself took the carbs off my 750.they actually didnt look to bad.some minor varnish.i'm going to let them soak overnight in undiluted Simple Green (an exelent carb cleaner but the way) blow out the remainder with a compressor and put em back together tommorow.the slow jet looked a liitle mucky but everything else was pretty spotless\\/

[TheCafeKid]

if ya still have issues after that, its prolly gonna be time for new intake rings...dont ignore it..i did...and now im CRAZY...\\/

[Ironriot]

So TCK any idea which yammies come single cylindered?

[Ironriot]

Whoops nevermind I read your reply in the the other thread.

[neil young]

Woohoo...just discovered there are no shims in a tcss engine.they are adjustable like the tappets on my cb's\\/\\/:-D

[TheCafeKid]

Ahhh...still learning here too...didnt know that..

[Ironriot]

The hell is a TCSS and ain't you lucky lol

[TheCafeKid]

TCSS motors are the 16V motors used from 80 on...of which i have one, and im glad i know that now..lol Not that ill be using it..Sold the frame on that 80 to a fellow GSR in need. so she's getting stripped this weekend..If anyone needs anything aside from body parts or a tank, ive pretty much got it...lemme know!!
