wont start, zzr400 import

Post by zavvy »

Hi and thanks for letting me join the group. After some time away from bikes after a nasty accident I bought a zzr400 of a guy who said this bike was just right for getting back on my bike. It had not been started for a year but said it needed petrol and away you go. After getting it home and cleaning out I tried to start it. NO spark. changed 2 new coils 4 spark plugs 4 leads and a new rectifier and still no spark. Anyone any idea what else this machine may need. (should have bought a new bike) or even better any bike mechanics live in North East England I will pay for your time and what ever just need this bike going if not I will set fire to it. Thanks for all your replies in advance. francis.
