Hi,
Have just taken delivery of my beautiful ALL green 2000 ZX9-R all the way from bonny Scotland. However, there appears to be a carb problem and she won't tick-over and cuts out regularly when pulling up. Can't be out that much coz she flies once going but the lack of throttle control/sputtering/backfiring and power from pull away is making her un-rideable and spoiling the joy of the new toy
Is anyone able to help please? I'm in Bridgwater, Somerset but am quite happy to ride to wherever.
Thanks.
Rich.

Re: Carb syncing/balancing
Had similar problem on an old fzr a while back , went very well once passed a certain rpm but farted and coughed upto about 5000 rpm . Blocked pilot jet , start bike from cold and carefully touch each of the downpipes ,if its the pilot jets one or more of the downpipes wont be getting warm . I used a can of compressed air and carb cleaner and a whole lot of patience .
Have a go dude , its rewarding if you can nail the sucker !
