You have a winner here. This is classic dave here. “Oh, shit!” And “Come on you piece of shit, go!” They are all classics I hope he come out with another video like this. Greg.
well you can spray in the sparkhole but it takes time
“sparkplug out, spray, sparkplug in”
and you can use : gas , quickstart , (even Deodorant but i wouldn’t recommend that)
well i only do the sparkplugs when it doesnt work in the carb,otherwise its to much work
and only thing u gotta do in most cases
is take the airfilter off for reaching the carb airhole
yep, used a blow torch and a paint stripper gun to heat the exhaust manifold/headers, which heats the engine, warms up the cylinders and also makes it start a hell of a lot easier. from what i gathered the heated headers/manifold aided combustion due to the heat, and also helped free the engine a little
suzuki’s are amazing, i worked on a crashed gsxr 600 1999 model, the engine sat oil free for 5 years and had seized, we stuck it in gear and forced the back wheel round until the engine freed, after heating the headers for 3 hours and a new battery it runs fine. i have fully restored the bike and it is on the road today
Still think that bike is kind of beauty,
and yeah does seem like the carb wasnt
gettting the right fule mixture at the start.
Thats just me thinking though.
man , yet again dave , the psudo experts are out to give you advice !!! jesus , dont they get it , guess not ..
keep having fun man .. and keep the vids coming !!!!
Chuckle… I bought my ‘82 1100 E rat from a friend for 100 clams, soaked the carbs in some cleaner, tossed in a fresh battery and voila it started. Smoked like a freight train, but it had sat for 6 years. I ride it ALL the time. It was primary transport during college and the only thing I replaced other than tires/chains was a couple of bulbs. Leaks oil, needs a tune up for sure, but hey it was a 100 bucks… The only time it has left me stranded was of my own idiocy. Best C-note
I ever spent

Those old Jap. bikes can be a total bitch to work on. But if done correctly, their performance is Amazing. I own many, but love my ‘81 CB650 the most.
