lol only just read youre reply, had a quick look on here before work, was bored

[CaNsA]

Cant get them carbs off.
Ive loosened the 4 jubilee clips but it still aint budging.

Is there anything else i can do?

Cheers

[zimm]

pull harder

the inlet rubbers harden with age ..

push the carbs down and spray wd40 around where they go into the stubs, then resort to brute strength

[lewisdale]

i know its probably not the recomended thing but i got a long screwdriver and levered the carbs off, put the driver on carb housing and pushed the screwdriver against the frame

[CaNsA]

Cheers guys,

Pulled them off, just seen your posts, The Lewis method works lol

All is good.

The metal pipe from the coolant pump is a fiddly little C*NT to undo, then i removed the dynamo/generator thingy and it was jammin.

just gotta figure out what else to remove before i take the lump out.

Peace

sounds like youre having fun lol, wish i had somewhere to do a proper rebuild on mine

[CaNsA]

If a driveway is somewhere proper then yeah its pretty cool. Unless it rains, gets uber windy, or dark

Im looking for a garage to rent nearby, but no joy
Its interesting actually seeing everything that makes the bike hoon. I just hope i can put it back together

Its it safe to jet wash the radiator with the back facing me leaned up against the wall (like a hooker) to get the crud out?

[lewisdale]

lol same ive been lookin 4 a garage too but there silly money like 100 quid a month round here!! im sure puttin it bk wont be too difficult, unless you leave it in bits for months trhen you might forget a few bits lol

Update on the rebuild.

Dan, Tony, Myself and our new Prospect have been getting bits on the bike to see if we can get the lump to tick over.

Looks like this could be an interestin project
First thing i thought was that rear disc is more rust then metal!!!!!lol

Zimm was there a thread on how to mod the L frame to take the Zx6r lump? Tried a search but couldn't find anything...
