Where is the rectifier located on my 2004 suzuki katana 600

Behind the radiator on the left side. It is the device with cooling fins, even though the electronic parts are embedded in rubber paste.The location isn't ideal and sudden defects leave people stranded so what people do is relocate the regulator/rectifier to a cooler place. Perhaps to the air inlet, under the air filter. Follow the three, mostly, yellow cables that originate from the stator when you don't find it behind the radiator.

Bajaj XCD 125 valve clearance please?

Should be the same as Honda 125 What is the valve clearance of a 125? The intake valve clearance should be 0.08mm (0.003 in) and the exhaust valve clearance should be 0.12mm (0.005 in). There should be a slight resistance as you slide the feeler gauge between the adjusting screw and the top of the valve stem. If there is no resistance the clearance is too large. This actually says on Bajaj CT100 doesn't tell you and suggests 0.007mm. https://www.team-bhp.com/forum/motorbikes/203868-diy-setting-tappet-clearance-motorcycle-bajaj-ct100b.html https://www.google.com/search?q=bajaj+xcd+125+valve+clearance They could put it here! https://www.bajajauto.com/images/maintainance/XCD_125dtsi.pdf Service Manual, says Free, but doesn't like my Ad Blocker! https://www.google.com/search?q=bajaj+xcd+125+service+manual+pdf+free+download ..

1985 Honda Gold Wing 1200. How can I get my clutch to release? It is so hard. Put a new master cylinder on it and pumped up. It is so hard and they've even bled it. How can I get it to release?

Question edited for clarity, but no idea what you mean by - "What do I need to do to get the gay? The clutching gauge in again?" You issue is probably that all the clutch plates are glued together. Leaving a bike for 21 years will do that. https://www.google.com/search?q=1985+Honda+Gold+Wing+1200+stuck+clutch ..

Cleaned my carburetors and the Jets and now my bike won't start. I have a spark but it won't start.

All questions need FULL 'year make model', as the first 3 words. Then there are 10,000 categories listed by 'make year model'. So we are working blind. Make sure gasoline is being delivered to the carbs by removing the fuel delivery pipe. Carbs come in different systems. If it has a float bowl on the bottom, tap it with the handle of a screwdriver as it may be stuck. Turn the engine over. If it doesn't start, remove the spark plug and see if it is wet with gas? You need three things for an engine to start Clean gas A spark at the right time Compression You have one thing missing //

Were do the fuel lines go to on a mountop 150cc

This particular unit has a typical GY6-style engine with a fuel line designated from the gas tank to the carburetor distinguished by an in-line cylindrical fuel filter located near the center of the line. Best to locate the carburetor distinguished by the location of the air filter, there should be a hose going from that unit up into the gas tank. Ideally, remove the gas tank entirely and it should reveal the gasoline lines directly to the carburetor. The photo shows the fuel line/filter indicated in red, and the location of the carburetor within the blue indicator. carbfuellocation-undefined-undefined-0.png

Gray smoke is coming out of my muffler on my 2017 kymco agility 125.

Normally white smoke is water in the combustion chamber but this is air cooled so either too much fuel, incorrect fuel or burning oil can cause this.

2000 Harley-Davidson FLHR/FLHRI Road King. It ran great no problem but leaking fuel line. I replaced with new fuel line but now won't start?

Question edited for a lot more clarity, plus typos. Question moved from 'Gas Motorcycles' to model category. You need to track the buzzing, but these come in either carburetor or Electronic Sequential Port Fuel Injection (ESPFI) My guess is that yours is fuel injected and the buzzing is the fuel pump relay.
