On my 2007 ZZR600 there is a little lever on the left hand grip. I am sure someone will know what this is for. I am guessing that it is the choke but honestly I have no idea. when it is up the bike starts fine but when it is down the bike wont start at all. Just wondering.

up the road miles and conditions with very few problems. Put the breeze between your knees and enjoy the journey. Question is, Did you jump to the gun before reading the entire statement/question?...

Is it normal sometimes for a motorcycle to not start up right away? I don't know how to put it. I guess like sound like its not turning over or something like like?

I've heard a lot of good things about it, but I also heard it is horribly unreliable and I'd be better of getting a Jap bike because it's so bad, that excessive vibration was awful, and it's really hard to sell it when you want to get a bigger/better bike.

So now I'm trying to decide if I'd be better of going with the Yamaha Virago or Kawi Ninja 250 rather than taking a chance on a Buell. Anyone wanna help me out here?

(I plan on buying it used. And I'm 5'7 and 200 pounds, if that makes any difference.)

It is a fresh rebuild, it has a new racing stator, it is getting fire, it is getting gas, but wont start. The kill switch is not hooked up. I put a straight key in the flywheel but my buddy said it might have an offset key or something. I dont know if the timing is set right. I dont know what else to look for.

I've seen a lot of people ask about being a better passenger. I'm a rider, but I have never had a passenger. Any tips, things to watch out for, how does it change things?

I previously posted a question about my front brakes squeaking but have since figured out that it is my rear brakes. Is this something I need to have checked out immediately? Are there things I can check?

Anybody out there have any tips or suggestions before I seal clean and seal my motorcycle tank with the product Kreem?

I.E. Experience, todo's, not todo's, tips, tricks etc...

I have spent alot of time and money on the paint job and graphics on the tank, and dont want them ruined.

Tank is about a 3.2 Gallon. with minor rusting internally, but enough that it is clogging the fuel petcock every once in a while.


Thanks in advance.

Its a pretty nice size trunk but for sure it will be hanging out. I want to know if you think my car will handle it. Its a 92 Lexus ES300 if that helps any. And the bike is FZ Yahama 600. Can I just tie it down with some rope and be okay?

Next week is Bike week here in NH. We have quite a few regulars here on Answers, from all over. I know of a few in NY, FL, OH, CA, and TX. I'm sure there's more, I just don't know where you're at. Just curious who I might bump into. No need to introduce yourself if you don't want to.
