Re: haynes manual
Nope, no haynes manual at all. It completely baffles me as to why not, they do one for the VFR and other imported 400's just not the ZXR.
I think we should petition them!

Re: haynes manual
yeah its pretty much aimed at dealer mechanics who already have a sound knowledge of what to do.

Re: haynes manual
ahh righto, you know where to fit the vacuum tube for the scottoiler? Just cut one of the balancing pipes in the middle and use a white 'T' piece to link the two. Easy
Bu the way, the scottoiler will also go underneath the riders seat at a squeeze

Re: haynes manual
nice one guys
can the balance pipe be got at without removing airbox, ive heard refitting the airbox back on the carbs (the rubber bell mounth bits) can be a right nightmare.
cheers agin

Re: haynes manual
you can get to the pipes without taking the airbox off yeah, its actually the carbs that make it more akward because the pipes are right underneath them. You can see here:
http://www.zxrworld.co.uk/zxr400/balancing.html
Can be either the pipe for 1n4 or 2n3, it doesnt matter. Airbox is a doddle to get on and off, not sure why anyone see it as hard. Hardest part is getting the two bolts inside the airbox to locate, otherwise it sits straight on
