Hey guys!

 

Being an avid motorcycle lover since the young age of 5, it's only taken me from being availabile to ride a motorcycle on the road from 16 to the age of 24 to pass my test! First time pass, with 5 out of 15 minors.

 

Goodbye to my little MZ 125 and hello to my 400 Bandit

 

 

Here she is when I got her....

She was constantly flooding a cylinder, drove me and my dad mental, never had more carburettor troubles than a jap!

Got a nice stainless steel radiator grille to go on and some red silicone coolant hoses

What do you guys think?

Looks good, check the pump for output... Also what's the carb mix like??

Nearly got a 600 one of these a few years back

 

Great bikes

Pump? do you mean regulator? that was shagged, so I replaced it, after it decided to fry my battery.... it's pretty good ! main jet needs tweaking as it's popping when I shut off the throttle completely. Other than that it goes like stink

[cal844]

If its popping thats OK as long as the plugs aren't black with soot

[Klevdo2202]

Ah okay! nooo, the plugs are spot on :) can't wait to get it out next spring this weather is rubbish !

[Carlos W]

When was it imported?

If it was recently it'll need a carb strip and clean. They tend to stand in Japan for ages before being shipped over

Great! I'd give the carbs a strip, light clean and rebuiid to remove the dust etc which can build up

Registered 1991, came over here 2002, I've already had the carbs off a million times, they were actually in good condition inside the bowls, other than one cylinder enjoyed flooding itself, finally sorted :)
