2004 kawasaki KLR 250 - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Check your clutch cable. If it is dragging,binding, not fully engaging for a few seconds, it is time to replace it.

You have to consult the specifications in the manual on the bike and line it up with flywheel at top dead center.There is a notch on the flywheel showing tdc and then line up at the appriate position on the cam sprocket.

Cold air is denser and you'll get more air in the bike, and the engine compensates with more fuel. It's cold as hell at 20F outside, but damn does the bike run crisp!

Possible weak coil or battery.

TRY BLOWING OUT THE MAIN JET ,IF CARBY IS STILL OFF.MAKE SURE YOUR AIR CLEANER IS CLEAN.

Hi Dave: I just bought my first KLR yesterday and a service manual came with it. Check the milage on yours?????? Really ony 2,200? That's barely broken in and amazing for a '94. The hiss from the airbox would indicate a bad intake valve or at least that I would be checking compression to start trying to figure it out.

stator or regulator/rectifier

i need more info

Hi,
Check the starter,wire connection harness and starter solenoid.
That high amp means a power that was being drain by the solenoid or the starter motor.
Disconnect the wire terminal of the starter and connect your ignition, you will see that it will not drain power from your battery and solve your fuse popping.
Then pull down the starter, overhaul it and clean/lubricate the bushing. If you can't do the starter a mechanic can do it for you.

Hope that helps you.

Thanks for using FixYa!

seals are available to replace the bad one on yours here

Two ways of doing this make sure you are using the right brake fluid The bleeder on the calper open up and pull fluid with a fluid pump Get one at auto parts store dont let the master cylinder go dry OR you can fill the calaper through the bleeder and push fluid up to the master cylinder MOPOR KENNY

cluth plates worn or i found a cable rusty & not releasing enough. oil cable or replace

Get a new plug and make sure it is gapped correctly or get a new coil

check for any high point in the hose, can sometimes tilt the bike to give the hose fall back to the disc cylnder.
try bleeding the banjo bolt at the master cylnder, same as using the bleeder, just crack it open under pressure.
sometimes air can be bled back to the master cylnder, by squeezing 2 or 3 times and then letting the lever flick back out, you may see some bubbles come back into the resiviour, careful they can squirt.
New pads can sometimes be a bit spongy until bedded in, if you replaced them as well.

That sounds like preignition. A pinking sound?
If it is has the ignition timing moved. too far advanced?
Is the spark plug the correct type and gap?
Does the engine require a de-coke?
