Hey all,
Just pushed my "new" '91 Ninja ZX-6 into my driveway... :lol: Got it from my neighbor for free. A friend of mine also got a bike from the same neighbor ('82 Kawasaki GPZ-750) a couple months ago. Both bikes were not running, but my buddy got his bike running a couple weeks ago. (Electrical system was melted by a fuel fire). My Ninja has a good bit of surface rust on bolts/rear frame/brake rotors/chain etc as it has been sitting in a carport for a couple years... The oil and coolant have been drained. The battery still has a charge and the gauges and lights seem to be working. 8) The whole bike needs TLC!
Anywho, I just want to get the Ninja running and riding with the minimum amount of money. I washed it off with a garden hose. It isn't pretty, but I don't care.
My neighbor says that the #1 and #2 spark plug holes are stripped (he attempted to fix it with JB Weld, but apparantly It didnt work) How should I go about fixing this? Any good part sources online? Anything to look out for on this bike? Precautions?
Thanks!
Matt
