  1. Hi Jeremy. I've pulled the starter out and spun it over on the floor, it worked great. I've also checked the earth on the front right of the engine and it looks good, I'll take it loose and clean it tomorrow. The battery I bought new from a reputable bike dealer, it's a wet cell battery and they sorted it out. You can see the voltage readout on the clocks drop when it's trying to turn over, it goes right down and the front light goes dim as soon as it turns over?
  2. Hi. I've bought a non running XVZ1200, 83 model, and have started rebuilding it. I bought a new battery/plugs etc to try and fire it up but it turns over way to slowly. When I press the start button the battery level just drops right down? I've also noticed the starter solenoid gets red hot when the engine's turning overhttp://www.yamahaventureclub.co.uk/forum//smileys/smiley24.gif I burned my fingers on the terminalshttp://www.yamahaventureclub.co.uk/forum//smileys/smiley35.gif, that's how hot it gets.
  3. Hi Keitho. The guy I'm buying it from's not too sure and I'd like to help him by getting as much info as I can, I thought that maybe some people on this site have gone through this and could shed some light on this for us, thanks anyway, greetings from Wales.
  4. Hi all. I've put an wanted ad on this site for a 1983/93 XVZ frame, and would like some info on how to ship it to the UK, what's the cheapest method and how will it have to be packed, will a palette do etc? Thanks all, Woz.
