Can We Get This Old Bike Started? - Part 1 | 1989 Yamaha FZR600 Genesis

- Опубликовано: 14 июл 2022
- So I bought this 1989 Yamaha FZR600 Genesis a few weeks ago. I actually traded another bike for it. The guy I got it from used to track it quite a bit, so it has some pretty cool things done to it, like, 94 YZF600 front forks, brakes, rear swing arm and wheels. Also put on a Techno Flex rear shock. It hasn't been started in over 4 years so I didn't know what to expect. he also gave me a 1994 Yamaha YZF600 parts bike to sweeten the deal. Not sure what we are gonna do with that just yet, but we'll see what happens.
We are also introducing Gabriel in this episode. He'll be joining me in most of the videos in the future. He actually owns the motorcycle dealership that we filmed this episode in, so if you like any of the bikes you saw, you can contact him at Geelong Motorcycle Centre. They also ship Australia wide. Go check them out.

Fuel pump buzzing ain't no gas in it 😂😂😂😂
Rag = certain amount of back pressure 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 this video is comedy gold 🤗🤣🤣🤣🤣
It's wasn't supposed to be a serious video. We were literally just trying a bunch of stuff to see if it would start without digging into it too deeply. In the next couple of videos, we did work on it semi properly. It did end up running and is now fully rebuilt and running great. I'm glad you got some enjoyment out of it. 😁
@@onecolektiv I'm laughing so hard right now. I don't know what to do 😔😭
"Ether it's a higher octane" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
it's an immaculate FZR. I have the very same bike in UK. owned for 14 years. black like your bike. how ever you need to get the right front fender or mud guard as we call it in the UK. and the exhaust is off a much later FZR. how as said mint condition bike 👍.
It's far from immaculate. But thanks. The exhaust is actually off a 94 YZF600. I had to modify the bracket slightly to fit it. We have pretty strict road worthy rules where I am. The FZR came with a Laser performance exhaust on it, and that is too loud to pass road worthy. That's why I have the YZF600 muffler on it. I already had it, and I didn't want to try source a genuine FZR one.
On many motorcycles, these included, it's insanely easy to change from standard to GP shift or vice versa. Just flip the collar. Done.
Was wondering when you'd be putting out another video! I was willing this beast to roar into life through my computer screen! Good job!
It was so satisfying when it actually fired up. We figured out the reason why it didn't run too well. Make sure to check out the next video and find out.
@@onecolektiv i will!
Yes that was the electric fuel pump
Am making a Music Projekt about this Motorcykel. I used to own one of these. Used to be legendary back in the late 80s 🔥 Awesome vid btw!
That's awesome. Thanks. Making another video today so make sure to subscribe and check out the rest of the videos as they come.
Never in my entire life I will get an motorcycle of these guys, they realy don't know what they are doing, they need a skilled engineer
I'm pretty sure I've said multiple times that we are not professionals, and these videos are for entertainment purposes only. Also, the bikes we make videos with are personal vehicles. All of the shop bikes do get worked on by actual mechanics. Maybe you should worry about your spelling and sentence structure before being a keyboard warrior. Appreciate the comment. Have a great day. 🙂
I have one just it runs good but the idle jumps up and down can you help me rebuilt carburetor but it does that
if it was a kick start you both would have given up and changed the fuel. It is way cheaper than either, not to mention much better for the engine.
Its the fuel pump...lmao.
I just acquired my dead dads old Vance and hines 1992 fzr600 3 days ago hasn’t been started in 17 years for the most part the bike needs a lot of work should I do a restoration video
Absolutely first and foremost the sentiment , it was your dad's plus they are great bikes and they were made for more years than any other sport bike produced. Basically unchanged for years with minor brake tweaks and the single head light for 91 and 92. Went back to double when the YZFs came out. Tons of parts available. I have a 92 I'm restoring also with lots of aftermarket goodies. Got it at a impound auction 20 years ago with 25k on the OD.for $125. Someone went crazy with a can of silver spray paint, it's on everything. Cleaned most of the parts and had frame with the bits and pieces powder coated gloss black. Ended up with other bikes to mess with so she sat untill a few months ago when I dug out all the parts after getting a wild hair getting a rolling chassis. Finally reassembly is happening. Probably going to be my track day bike. I live near COTA and want to do some laps there. The bike rips and don't have to put my nicer stuff through the abuse. I have all sorts of brand bikes. I love them all, it's my addiction
@@plap. I found out it’s actually a 93 with double headlights unknown miles because it says 0 you think it would be possible to switch it over to the single trapezoid lights from 92?
@@Fred-zt6gf didn’t see this comment did you end up getting your 89 fzr600?
@@Jeweltocool They swap out easily but they need the tube bracing that goes along with. That is the only thing specific to each. The rest of the faring parts are the same. Remember the single head light was a two year thing, 91/92, so it is way harder to come by. Most people like the duals better anyway.
@@plap. I’m pretty sure people like the singles better up until fox eyes
What does "95 fuel" do? Octane rating only prevents detonation in high compression engines a engine under heavy load or advance timing 🤣 wth man.
I can tear this bike down and put it all back together every bolt just fucking around in about 2 hours I have a 1994 FZR 600G with 17000 almost 18000 miles b4 the speedo cable broke and I've put 10,000 miles on it since then ride it like I stole it always the starter gears broke can only push it off and is cold natured ass hell but no choke and I can start mine in the winter easy after sitting as long as I want out in the open during rain and everything its my favorite death trap lol I've flipped it end over end almost died in the pitch black night in between farm land so there what no lights but mine and I passed opossum doing about 110 slowed down to about 70 and a cat ran out in front of me that was stalking the possum and took my front tire out in sharp ass curve and I flipped and spun on the hard top for 100 or more feet and my gun came off my hip and flew about 3 times that I drove it home with no brakes at all cuz it ripped them all and nothing but the clutch I made it all the way home I drove it 115 with no clutch lever or no brakes and no nothing no clutch handle made it start and gear and took off and never slowed down just my foot the kick it in and out of gear with no clutch until I got home about 10 mi away from my house
2 hours, what even the air filter box 😂
@@roryjames2151 no smart ass I took the goddamn bike apart fucking 40 times cuz I own the bike and I know every single bolt and screw so yeah I can completely tear that bike down in 2 hours or less I bet you money on it
Insane...lmao!
Have pictures and video of what it did to me I luckily had three layers of clothes on and thick gloves I just had bored off somebody in my helmets scent from one side to the other Tuck the glass out of it and everything or windscreen whatever the hell you won't call the lens kill the cat stone dead went back to find my gun later in my car took like an hour and a half to find it It was way off in ditched and tall grass so I had to stomp the grass down like literally for two football fields and side by side each step until I stepped on it You picked it up and it's got scars on it from the hardtop had to buy a new holster Don't have any plastics on my bike but that bike was actually supposedly built like prototype of a Yamaha r1 or R6 whatever the fuck it is that frame the Delta box That's what it's inspired the R6 I think which is one of the best or was one of the best bikes in the world I don't know now haven't really kept up with all the bikes in a long time and these bikes are crazy fun and fast for a little 600
Puts hand over carb it's got pretty good compression 😮😂😂😂😂 bro. First time watcher do you guys have a shop. 😂😂😂 If so how do you stay in business 🤔🤣🤣🤣
The shop was Gabriel's dealership. Just second-hand bike sales. Neither of us are mechanics. The shop never did mechanical work. We just have a bit of fun trying to fix and modify bikes.
@@onecolektiv hahahaha it's 5:39am in us east coast. Have a good night over there
dont haw a fuil...
How to fuck up a bike that just needs some cleaning...
Funny how we fucked it to the point it runs great now. Some people just don't get the concept of doing things for the sake of content. Don't worry your little head about it. All future content will come with a disclaimer at the start of every video stating that these videos are for ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY. Just so all you butt hurt people out there can't complain that we are ruining our OWN bikes. Make sure to subscribe. We'll be doing a series, especially for people who just want something to comment negatively on. It will consist of us getting really nice bikes and seeing what sort of things it will take to destroy them completely. Hope you enjoy. Have a nice day, and thanks for your continued support.
@@onecolektiv Runs so great that already runned away 😅
You go hilly billy 💪
That sentence doesn't make sense. "Runned" isn't a word in the English language. Do you want to try again? Maybe with some punctuation and proper grammar.
How not to recommission a bike, really crappy skills here. Surprised you didn't kill the starter, should have dropped the old fuel first, checked spark at the plugs then started.
Basic 101 failure, this video caused me pain to watch, and still you moved it on without checking the jets after she's been parked for how many years... sad 😞
You obviously didn't watch part 2 and 3 where we did clean the jets and changed plugs, fuel, oil, and all the usual stuff. I did this video purely to see if we could start it doing as little as possible.
Neither of us have ever claimed to be actual mechanics. In fact we state in almost every video that most of what we do is the first time attempting these things. We leave all our mistakes in the videos so the people watching don't run into the same problems.
As for me selling it. At the point of sale, it had a new battery, new oil, new plugs, new coolant, carbs were cleaned as well as the jets, new fuel cap, and the bike started and ran first go every time.
So before leaving potentially damaging comments to small youtubers videos, maybe check if there are follow up videos that go more in depth and explain what's actually going on.
Anyway, thanks for your comment. Every comment helps.
Wow, you really tried to start a bike with 4 years old gas? Are you mechanics or just 2 guys with a lot of bikes?
We are not qualified mechanics. We do know it's not the best idea to do that. But, we could, so we did.
@@onecolektiv Ok, "for entertainment only", Got it. 👍
Yeah, exactly. We've had quite a few comments on this video about it. All future videos will have a distinction between actual information and entertainment only, as we do both.
@@onecolektiv Cool, good to know, btw does the bike running ATM or still dead? Cuz I also have a 1990 FZR600 and I put it back on the road this year, they are great bikes, easy to work on.
I got it running. There are 3 videos I did with this bike. I have since sold it. The current owner is restoring it. He loves it. It was too uncomfortable for me.
Bike stood 4 years should have cleaned carbs.straight away .first
Yes, we know that. But that wouldn't have been any fun. We just wanted to see if we 'could' get it running without too much work.
@@onecolektiv cleaning carbs would have saved you work and running shit fuel through valves and cylinders not good after stand up
It a nice bike
It was basically for the sake of a video. Just to see if we could. If we weren't filming, we would have done everything before trying to start it. I recently bought a speed triple. I spent 100 hours on that bike before I started it up. Everything on the videos is just for entertainment purposes.
Putting a clutch in my sons bike tomorrow same model but UK .sat on sidestand a month sounds lumpy as fuck.needs carbs cleaning .four years and start up with eezy start ..nice bike don't fuck it with shortcuts.
