Hello. Just bought a bone stock '92 FZR 1000 from a collector that is damn near like new w/8k miles. All his bikes are kept inside various rooms of his house and he kept this one in his living room. It has all new fluids, but the tank, lines and carbs were all cleaned/drained after his last ride prior to storing it inside for the past year. I bought a new battery. Bike was shipped and arrived today, so I'll go out and tinker with it when I get some time this weekend. I have the factory shop service manual and will look at it, but figured I'd ask some questions here.
Is there a particular procedure I should follow in my attempt to get it back to running by adding fuel, etc.
As far at the fuel goes, will the carbs needs anything done to them before firing this thing? Just add fuel to the tank and crank (but not fire the motor); prime it so to speak?
Look for leaks? No leaks, fire it up and keep a close eye on things? Or should I just fill the tank, crank, let it gravity feed and then try to start it in a day or so? Thanks.
