Hey all.
I know this is the triumph forum but we are all classy individuals here and i figured i can get some general help
My brother has 94 FZR 600 - which is carburated, 4 cyl. The last time he started it was november, the last service/plug replacement was late spring, battery replaced with a low cost unit in the early fall.
So the bike is for sale and someone is interested but we can't get it started. We have it sitting on the trickle charger for a few days and we play with the choke but it never fires. After a while we start to smell fuel which is a good cause it tells me fuel is getting to the carbs. The choke/carb cables are all working. it also has a full tank of premium gas and seafoam.
and btw way it is cold as sh** in the garage where we keep it.
I haven't tried: pouring a little fuel in the carbs...i've done this on atvs but is it ok to do on a sports bike?
also haven't tried rollin and popin the clutch. the driveway is very short and we live off a busy street.
the starter sounds strong when we press the button...and sometimes when its a warmer day it sounds close to starting but never does.
Any suggestions? Id like to help him out since he bought my R6 so I could by my daytona.
Thanks!
