I just bought a 1993 zx6.. first bike in Many years w/o one. I am being forced to sell my twin turbo mustang so I needed something to get the speed out on.
Either way. The person I bought it from didnt speak much english, it was 3am when I picked it up so he didnt want to start it at his house. he offered to go up the street with me and let me hear it run, but I just figured it he was willing to do that, i would trust it ran.. I am begining to think he was bluffing.. Every bike I have had in the past had a gas on/off/reserve switch. This one does not seem to have one. I have 2 good batteries and the starter is crankin like a champ, it just does not appear to be getting gas. I have messed with the nob under the gas tank that seems to be a carb adjustment or something.. there is also a little button that seems like a gas release of some sort but it also doest seem to do much. The bike sounded like it wanted to fire about 10 times.. unsure what I am doing wrong. is there a kickstand kill switch, clutch must be pressed in.. when it does sound like its going to start (for a brief second) it smells too much like gas afterwords. Anyone can help?!
