FZ750 Awakens From Hibernation
Spring has arrived a month early in these parts. With the melting of the last remnants of snow I put the battery of my FZ750 motorcycle on a trickle charge for a few days and on Wednesday of this week I installed it in the bike and fired it up. She started on the third try and after a few minutes on choke she ran smooth at idle. The clutch however, still needs work. I popped the shifter into first and she stalled. It seems as though there is no hydraulic pressure. I’m going to have to try a bleed and may have to install a master and perhaps also a slave kit. Still to do for the safety check are the brakes. I have a new front-right rotor and a machined, used rear rotor and also new pads all around. That should do for the safety but I may also replace the chain and sprockets and also the windscreen before putting her on the road. Hard to say. With this weather I’m anxious to ride.
