Let me first start off by saying, I screwed up...LOL
1993 600 Katana, 5700 miles, just bought off EBay
Got it home, ran it up and down the road, ran great.
Next day, went out, ran great UNTIL you had to slow to an idle at which point it died and took forever to restart, usually at a busy intersection.
No problem....replace plugs, check and replace air filter, same problem.
Still ok with everything, the previous owner said it had sat for several years, so I drain the carbs, add a dash of seafoam to the gas and head out again. Same problem NOW is where the problem comes in......
Synch carbs, or rebuild carbs ?? Well, lets just say I decided to pull em and give em a good cleaning. Problem is, most if not all the orings and gaskets were completely shot (explaining the strong smell of gas in my garage) and it seems NOBODY carries a carb kit, much less gaskets here locally. It is Sunday about 3PM sunny and 75 out which is VERY rare in Ohio and I am stuck without a bike !!!!
Anybody know where I can find parts and/or kit for these F^%#ing carbs?? Thanks for listening to me ramble, hope you all had fun riding this weekend !! LOL
