Hi, I'm Isaac, I'm 17 and I live in Lebanon, TN. I have a 77 KZ650. It has 24,000 miles on it but still has good compression and a strong engine. But it has some problems I would like to fix.
For one. The back wheel rides a little wobbley. I don't know how to adjust this. But I think it may have to do with the way I installed the shocks back onto the bike, it only came with bars attached to it so It rode shorter. I would like to balance out that wheel...
Second. The battery loses charge. I'm not aware of how an "altenator" would work on a bike, but if there is one, I don't know what's wrong with it bc I have to put the bike on a charger before I ride it.
Third. The starter works, but only when you kick it with a screwdriver. I think the relay or switch is messed up.
Fourth. The horn wires are not "hott". The horn itself works, but not by the switch.
I gave 600$ for the bike, before problems 1-3 arose. That is good around here I think. I am stuck driving it bc my car blew. I want to get it in good shape, any ideas?
I don't have a lot of experience working with bikes, maybe I can pick some things up. I can say I sucessfully rebuilt the starter on it...
