Sorry I take forever to post, haven't been home a lot. Looks like everything's in time and cyl 1s lobes are opposing each other
Idk why it posted the pics sideways but once you click on them they're rightside up
FinalImpact will be out of town for a bit so will check the cams ASAP
TownsendsFJR1300 the pics final impact posted are exactly what mine looks like, everything's aligned where it should be, will post pics as soon as I'm back in town
Yes I the pulled the covers and everything lines up as it should with the rotor and cam gears, idk if the valves are bent but I guess I'd need to pull the head to tell
got the comp test done and it's amazing it cranked those couple times, cyl 1 was 90psi and the rest were around 60
So next is the question of rebuilding or replacing the motor. It looks like it'll have to come out either way
Thanks for the info FinalImpact.
Paolo, I checked it through the bikes computer/dash controls and the values were accurate with what the manual stated but there may be other ways to check that I'm not aware of
Will post results of comp test asap
Haven't gotten the adapter for the comp tester yet. Was wondering if anyone knows the size that I need bc I can't find literature on it and short of matching it took the spark plugs threads idk any other way of sizing it before I order.
Also hand tested the TBs and they all 4 seem to have...
I have a compression tester just need the right adapter to fit to these spark plug holes, also have an air compressor so one way or another ill def check this out next. I'll see what it's like w hand over TB and spark plug holes just bc
I have some tools, my main question is how does one tell...
Debating on just buying a new motor for 5/600$ on eBay, anyone have any experiences with swapping a motor on these?
Will do the hand to the TBs and post asap
Thought he last post didn't go thru sorry for the double post, couldn't figure out how to delete the post
The more I think compression the more I contemplate just buying a motor from eBay... Anyone have experience buying a motor from eBay? I see some low mileage ones for around 5/600$, guaranteed to run
I'm gonna try the hand test of the TB tubes and post, may order an adapter for my comp tester...
It has spark on each wire.
It has ran twice since I've had it, only long enough for me to rev a few times trying to keep it on and then died off.
When it has coughed and studdered (which obviously wasn't happening in the video) it's heated up the exhaust pipes of cylinders 1 and 3. Also it...
No error codes. Battery voltage when cranking was 11.4, so well over 9.5.
Wires on one of the coils was put on incorrectly which I changed back, good info!
The red covered wire from the battery positive lead to the starter relay is the one that gets hot and the starter relay also gets hot all...
Okay it's been a while but I pulled the coils, plug wires and checked the crank sensor to the resistances in the manual and they are all fine.
Key off 13.2
Key on. 12.8
Ign on. 11.4
When trying to cranking the bike sounds like it's so close to running BUT after touching the exhaust...
I'm gonna order the adapter and check comp now for sure
The only thing electrically that is amiss is the headlight, there isn't one now ( I took the crummy one off, it was rough, not the oem ) and it was tinkered with by the previous owner for sure.
I just watched a few videos on start up...
I bought this bike as a fixer upper, kid had laid it down and scraped it all up and let it sit. He said was cranking up until when the battery went bad but it just sat in his yard for a while.
The link to the first thread is on final impacts first post in this thread. I'm in lake city. Idk if...
