Hi,
Just fitted restrictors to my ZX6R, got them in ok, between the inlet rubbers and the carbs but now the bike doesnt want to start and when it does it keeps cutting out if I dont rev it. Anyone know why this might be!!? Thanks for any help!

Mixture is wrong and/or carb manifold/airfilters arent sealing properly

You probably haven't put the carbs back on properly.

Take the carbs off and try again mate Thumbs Up

Edit: By "try Again" i mean put them back on etc... it obviously wont start if you take them off and try to start it again Laughing

As others have said your carbs probably havent seated back into the manifold rubbers properly.

Also make sure you connected the fuel line back up and stuck the tank onto on. Thumbs Up

He more than likely turned the tap to off so no. He might have forgotten to turn it back on.

Also another thing to check is the coil connections. I would bet its the way the carbs have been put on though.

Hi, thanks for the advice yesterday guys.
Spent hours trying to sort it, turns out for some reason it just won't run with restrictors in it for some reason.
Oh well........... Razz

My VFR400 needed the carbs completely set up from scratch when it was restricted.

When I derestricted it, it ran like a pig unti I had it serviced properly, where the carbs were balanced and set up again.
