With Charley on this, remove the clutch slave cylinder and check the push rod. This sounds like the small bearing that the input shaft runs in has collapsed - the clutch push rod runs through the midd...

As the man himself said, this is the current plug for the Gen 2 onwards engine - its an Iridium version. Remember you will need the additional screw on caps for your plug leads. Gen 1 engines use the ...

Agree with everyone above on this, you are due a rebuild. As DavidF said there seems to often be problems at 45 hours + that end up resulting in a larger cost over having it done on running hours. The...

Awesome work sir, this will be so useful for a lot of people!

@rojid Glad its sorted! The corrosion may have been something to do with it but I have also heard that with a low battery voltage it keeps spinning the starter (but not fast enough/with enough RPM fo...

Hi Frank, I am 99% sure that it is an OEM Kawasaki filter, although it has been a number of years since I have had a look at one of these. There is a circular plate on the underside of the sump that y...

In my experience so far there seems to be a lot more issues with aftermarket units, whereas OEM never seem to go wrong unless spun! If your after a spare to get you through a day or race weekend afte...

Posted by: @davidf Posted by: @rlm-dan I have seen one recently where the voltage was dropping off enough that an engine would start and die -- I think the voltage was dropping off low enough on s...

Well at least somethings have been eliminated! If you did not fit new spark plugs on the engine swap I would 100% be doing that before anything else - although it is worth keeping in mind as you say t...

This sounds like one of those fun issues! If the problem has been with a previous engine and now one this one then we should be able to rule out the engine. I would also suggest that it isn't a proble...

@jonasr1 Another interesting one! Has the problem been since a rebuild or just started? Firstly I would be looking at some basics, although it sounds like you have covered most, have you replaced/che...

Hi Rod, Seeing this reminds me I never replied to your e-mail, apologies I will get on this! We go for 60NM. These are generally good and whilst I know it is not technically correct as long as it is t...

Really good to see this Charley, it is great that your hard work, effort and enthusiasm is being recognised by the factory!

Plenty do in the UK without any issues. The charging system will cope with it fine so no problems. You have to be on top of the system as Lithium does not like being discharged (like a failed charging...

Not ideal, looks to be a lot of debris there. Hopefully this is not out of place to mention but we could rebuild in a much shorter timescale if you were open to shipping to the UK and happy to run a n...
