\"\"<\/a><\/div>

So here we have a GSX-R750.
 
\n
 
It came in on a flatbed from Kachikachi Mountain with the starter not turning over.
\nA weak battery can cause that, or a weak starter relay.
\nI checked to make sure power was getting through properly from the kill switch to the starter switch to the starter relay to the starter motor.
\nI looked at the contacts too.
\nYeah, it’s definitely smelling like the starter motor.
\nThere was a working donor carcass out front, so we got the OK to use it. Parts are free!
 
\n
 
Moving on to mini maintenance. It’s super dirty…
 
\n
 
Ugh! I wiped down just the entrance…
 
\n
 
There’s no oil residue, so I polished it and then lubed it up.
 
\n
 
While I was at it with the clutch, the lever nut was missing!
 
\n
 
The sync was all out too.
 
\n
 
Feels great now!
 
\n
 
I went ahead and replaced the spark plugs too…
\nThere’s so much that needs doing, so I’ll call it good here.
\nAll done!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
