Hi and welcome to FixYa,

Initial check is to remove the spark plug after giving it a try to start:

• if the plugs are wet with fuel, then the carbs are OK, if not then it would most likely be a fuel delivery issue to the combustion chamber;
• connect the sparkplugs back to their wires and lay it against any metal part;
• crank the engine;
• note if there would be spark;
• no spark, then an electrical issue;
• good spark, then back to fuel issue.

Postback results of above initial tests.

Good luck and thank you for asking FixYa.

Go to cycle gear and get the fork oil measurer. it will cost minimal and you can measure 1 fork. mark it then do your work, after that just fill to the level that you removed. recomend olins oil. costly but great. about $40 a bottle. 1 bottle will do both

You have float and/or needle and seat problems. Remove the hoses from the air box to each carburetor. Set bike on center stand or block up to get it level--turn on fuel tap and watch for leakage from each carburetor. Turn the fuel tap off. Pop the float bowl off of any that leaked, remove the float and pin--catch the float needle. You probably have debris in the seat area which causes faulty float action. Turn on the fuel tap again and catch the discharge in a clean small jar. Look for rust or other particles in the fuel. If all carburetors are affected, look at the fuel strainer screen just above the fuel tap bowl--no holes and seated properly. You may need to flush the tank if the interior is rusted or full of dirty fuel.

Make sure your fuel tank vent is not plugged. To see if this is the problem, the next time the bike starts acting up, stop and open the fuel tank. If you hear a whoosh of air being sucked in you know your vent is plugged.

The C8HA is still available, it is NGK stock number 2168.
Good luck.

It is is firing out of the carb and the exhaust, the timing must be off, but also slipping. Is the flywheel tight? https://www.google.com/search?q=1984+kawasaki+klt+250+backfiring+problem ..

Absolutely, the rectifier on your Kawasaki Mean Streak 1500 can be repositioned during a customization project. The rectifier is a crucial part of the motorcycle's electrical system, converting alternating current (AC) from the stator into direct current (DC) to charge the battery and power the bike's electrical components. While relocating the rectifier, it's important to consider a few key factors:

1. Space and Mounting: Assess the available space on the motorcycle to find a suitable location for the rectifier. Ensure that the new position allows for proper mounting and secure attachment without interfering with other components or the bike's functionality.
2. Heat Dissipation: The rectifier generates heat during operation, so it's essential to relocate it to an area with adequate airflow for cooling. Mounting it in a well-ventilated area helps prevent overheating issues.
3. Wiring and Connections: When moving the rectifier, ensure that the wiring can be appropriately rerouted to reach its new location. Take care to maintain proper electrical connections and ensure a secure, stable wiring setup.
4. Protection: Consider adding protective measures, such as shields or guards, to safeguard the relocated rectifier from road debris, water, or other potential hazards.

Modifying the placement of the rectifier may require custom brackets, mounts, or fabrication work to secure it in the desired location. It's crucial to execute the relocation carefully, maintaining proper electrical connections and ensuring the rectifier's safety and functionality. If you're not confident in performing these modifications yourself, consulting a professional motorcycle mechanic or technician with experience in customizations can be highly beneficial. They can offer guidance, expertise, and ensure that the modifications are carried out safely and effectively.

I'm assuming you have already checked the actual bulb is still OK? The bike uses a 'twin element' bulb so the tail light element might still work but the brake light element has blown. It's designed to be two bulbs in one so it takes up less space.On a lot of vehicles some electrical features share a fuse and only some of them are marked on the fuse box lid. Has anything else stopped working? On some Kawasaki bikes the brake light shares a fuse with the horn and the tail light so if the fuse has blown all three won't be working. Check the fuse labelled as the Horn to see if that has 'Popped'.*NOTE* ONLY replace fuses with one of the SAME Amp rating as lower 'A' fuses will blow and higher 'A' fuses won't protect your electrics.Bulbs and fuses are usually cheap to buy so you could replace them anyway before thinking it's going to be a 'Big' repair.

If your Kawasaki ZZR600 suddenly stopped firing, there are several possible reasons for this. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can take to identify and resolve the issue:

1. Check the battery: A weak or dead battery can prevent the engine from starting. Make sure the battery is fully charged and has a voltage of at least 12.5 volts.
2. Check the spark plugs: The spark plugs may be fouled, worn out, or damaged. Remove the spark plugs and inspect them for signs of wear or damage. If necessary, replace the spark plugs.
3. Check the ignition system: The ignition coils, ignition module, and wiring may be faulty. Use a multimeter to test the resistance of the coils and check the wiring for continuity. Replace any faulty components as needed.
4. Check the fuel system: The fuel filter may be clogged, the fuel pump may be faulty, or there may be a problem with the fuel injectors. Check the fuel pressure and flow, and inspect the fuel filter and injectors for any signs of clogging or damage.
5. Check the carburetor (if applicable): If your ZZR600 has a carburetor, it may be dirty or clogged. Remove the carburetor and clean it thoroughly with carburetor cleaner.
6. Check the camshaft timing: If the camshaft timing is off, the engine may not fire properly. Check the timing marks and adjust the camshaft if necessary.

If none of these steps resolve the issue, you may need to take your ZZR600 to a qualified mechanic for further diagnosis and repair.

Normally you can't because the ignition is electronic and has an immobilizer. Just buy a new switch or you will have it stolen again. https://www.google.com/search?q=kawasaki+ex250+replacement+ignition+switch ..

There could be several reasons why oil is coming out of the overflow hose on your Kawasaki KDX 220R. Some possible causes include:

1. Overfilled oil tank: If the oil tank is overfilled, oil can get forced out of the overflow hose when the engine is running.
2. Worn or damaged oil seals: If the oil seals in the engine or transmission are worn or damaged, oil can leak out of the engine and into the carburetor, where it can then be forced out of the overflow hose.
3. Clogged or damaged oil cooler: If the oil cooler is clogged or damaged, it can cause excess oil to build up in the engine, which can then be forced out of the overflow hose.

It's important to identify and address the cause of the oil leak as soon as possible, as running the engine with excessive oil can cause serious damage. I recommend taking your bike to a mechanic for a thorough inspection and repair.

If your 1991 Kawasaki Voyager radio is working, but the volume is very low, there could be a few possible causes for this issue. Here are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:

1. Check the volume level on the radio itself. Make sure that the volume is turned up all the way and that the mute function is not enabled.
2. Check the volume level on any external devices (such as a smartphone or MP3 player) that may be connected to the radio. Make sure that the volume on these devices is turned up as well.
3. Check the wiring and connections for the radio. Make sure that all of the connections are secure and that there are no damaged or frayed wires.
4. Check the speakers for the radio. Make sure that the speakers are properly connected and that there is no damage to the speakers or the wiring.
5. If the volume is still low after trying these steps, it's possible that there may be an issue with the radio itself. In this case, you may need to have the radio repaired or replaced.
