i have another username that i cant remember so i started thisone. i have a 95 fzr 600r. i just got my license back on wednesday and got my permit yesterday. my license was suspended for the past 8 years. i have been cleaning and waiting to ride my bike for the past two years. it god damn time and all of a sudden my bike is leaking gas out of the right carb vent tube. wtf!? please help me.....

Stood for 2 years, did you ever fire her up? the carbs need stripping and cleaning. The floats or the float needle's are gunked up/jammed, all 4 carb's need a clean/service, also the tank could be rusty, empty and discard any fuel in the tank, change the fuel filter, change the engine oil and filter, coolant, brake fluid, brake's should also be checked for correct operation.

That bike needs a thorough check/service before you take her on the road.

what he said.

pull your airbox, make sure the slides are moving, run some seafoam through it, might clear up the carb issue. they definitely need cleaned, seafoam can clean them a bit, but nothing beats a thorough going through.

Hey Mauler you're giving such good advice can I go on Holiday and leave you in charge .........

nothing to add advice wise except the tyre should be inspected for dry rot & be deflated & re-jnflated to the correct pressure for your body weight.
