Butterfly thingy doesn't turn on ignition

Postby Juggy » Sat Sep 19, 2015 6:04 pm

Hi,
So I am trying to get my ZX6R back up and running after a few years of sleep. Bought a new battery and hooked it up but when I try to fire it the butterfly thing in the picture doesn't turn and it doesn't sound like there is any "priming" sort of stuff going on. Then when I try to kick it over it just winds over and over with no ignition.
Any help would be great.
Thanks

Sometimes they can work again if you give it a light tap and wiggle...happened to mine but then failed again not long after.

If you have an aftermarket exhaust, might be worth getting a servo eliminator....if not may have to replace servo (providing the fuses are alright, etc.
