Motorcycle Repair: bike wont start, honda cbr, petcock


Question
i have a 97 honda cbr 600f3. It set for about 3 weeks, i went out and started it and drove it around for a little bit..then parked for about another 3 weeks..went out to start it again and it wont start...it cranks over fine but wont fire up...i drained the old gas from the tank and carbs thinking maybe it had water in it but that didnt work..i have checked the plugs and i have spark..they seem fine...but it just wont fire up...any suggestions??

Answer
Hi Brian,

It could be a number of things, start with the kickstand being in the up position, then make sure its getting fuel and the petcock is on, then the kill switch, and spark. Sorry for the lack of info on this one.

Hope it helps!
