Title: argh! perfect timing!!
Post by: Leonidas on 22 June 2012, 07:49:30 pm
my mate came to buy my fzs 600 (2000) model today and it for the first time start! totally dead not even instrument lights! it jump started and ran allright but the speedo clock was going crazy :( after a 10 minute run I stopped the engine and the instrument lights had afaint glow, it had to be jump started and was ok unless you knocked he lights off, it would then sound rough and stutter a bit. I had just washed it.


Battery?
Water?
Both?


Please help :(

May have got water on the HT leads, all bikes do it, mine ran on 3 cylinders for a while as they were wet.

Give it a good 50mile rideout

Sounds battery related to me. Give it a good charge up.
