  • Servus and welcome! I bought this Suzuki BANDIT N 1200 MY 97 (GSF 1200 GV75A) without starting the engine because the battery was dead. But to start it would be a bad idea anyway because the fuel tank is very rusty on the inside. So we can expect the rust to be everywhere.
    After inspecting the bike for damage and worn parts we remove the fuel tank. To do so the fuel switch handle needs to be removed as well as the fuel hose. After the tank is lifted off, the carburetor needs to be taken out. Because the rust may be in there its necessary to clean the carbs at least. So we remove all throttle cables, the intake clamps and the throttle position sensor plug. Then the carbs can be lifted upwards and be taken out the bike. Next comes the disassembly and inspection of the carburettors. We do every step together and everything is showed and explained in detail.
    In the next video we assemble the carbs and may see if the bike starts?
    I hope you enjoy my video and it helps you to repair your own stuff - because thats my intention! Thank you for watching

    Thank you for watching! In the next episode we replace the chain kit with a RIVET style chain lock.

    Excellent video.
    Great detail of the smaller parts.
    I will watch your other videos of the bandit 1200 as I have one from this era too (96 B12) and am very interested in the carbs. Thanks

    Good Show, should turn out a good bike, quite low miles. I have a 99 1200 bandit, when putting it away for winter I use the drain screws on the bottom of 4 carbs to completely remove fuel from them, there would still be a little left if you just ran it until it cuts out, you can see my restart after 1 1/2 years stored on utube channel.

      Right to drain them is the best way but most ppl just do nothing before winter and then the carbs end like on this bike.

    can you set the fueltank petcocks on off on this model? Just leave them on pri all the time..

      Just set it to "on" then fuel only goes through when the bike runs. On pri it's always open.

    Hi, there is no OFF on the fuel tank, I guess you could remove the vac hose....

    • @bikedogtor1663
      @bikedogtor1663  3 роки тому

      Hi, these valves are activated by the vac hose. No hose - no fuel

      @@bikedogtor1663 Exactly, so when you say shut the fuel off (on a bike with no OFF position) the same can be achieved (on a working tap) by disconnecting the vac hose.
      Then it is possible to run the carbs dry of fuel. OR unscrew the float drains.

    Mine has been in storage for 4 years so I assume I will have some of the same problems.
