Help me !!!! 900rr starting problem
[INDENT]I have a 1997 CBR 900rr that i can't get to start. the plugs we're fouled, so i changed them out with very little results. after i changed them out it started once with no problem, then it wouldn't start anymore after that. i also put a new battery in, but it still won't start. when i go to start it i turn the key and gas on and pull the choke. when i push the start button it'll turn over,but then it'll start backfiring and shooting a flame out the pipes. Could someone please give me some suggestions so i can get my bike running ? thanks for your input into this problem !!!!!
Hmmmm. Backfiring while cranking usually means the timing is off. New plugs mean fouling isn't making misfire an option.. Too little gas form clogged jets would make it not fire, then fire…. I'll pick my brains here for a bit…..
Giving some details about the history of bike will help members help you..... Did you just purchase bikes. What happened before bike die out? Was it sitting for long time? If so, How long...how did you find out plugs are foul? Did seller advise you? Did you save your old plugs? How they look? Any other related problems?
yes, the bike was just purchased recently and it had been sitting for a while, i'm in the process of cleaning the carbs and should know by tomorrow if the jets we're the problem. hopefully that'll solve it, cause i really want to get some good riding in before it gets too cold. and thanks for the input you guys have been giving . maybe tomorrow i'll be able to tell ya'll how good my bike runs.

Hello, first-time poster.
I'm seeking help with my 94' CBR900RR. She has been running fine forever. She was running a couple of Fridays back, started to go out on this Friday and she would not fire up. Motor turns over fine, I can smell gas. There is no fire.
Replaced wires and plugs just last year. Resistance on the coils, and coils to wires tested OK.
I am not proficient at using an electrical meter but I think that the cdi is fine and the thing that I am highly suspecting is the "pulse coil".
I thought that it was the stop/run switch at first, so I cleaned it and think it's fine.
Please help.
