    the negative lead should be on the top of the battery cover not at side, thanks this was helpful.

    If you look at the plastic on the top of the battery there is a channel the negative lead goes down

      @@Wednesday51 go on Facebook and join the zzr1400 group people on there can tell you a lot. What's the mileage on the one your getting as valves need doing around 25k and isn't a cheap job. And keep the oil to the top of the window as the oil pump plate is a weak link on these and if they go can throw no3 rob. You can buy an upgrade plate for around £50 it goes behind the clutch basket there is a good video on here on how to change it.

      Thanks for that Becky ... I’ll take it all on board.
      Mileage 000007 .. most of that the PDI ... registering one of the last of the breed on 24/11/2020

      Thanks for the subscription it’s much appreciated. Is there anything particular you would like a video on? The next one should be LED lights.

      The_Johnsons81 cheers I’ll give it some thought. Yes Led lights would be great though

      Just used to access the battery for optimate. Thanks... on older ZZRs the 3rd bolt on the panel seems to be a plastic pin instead. 🤷‍♂️

    That’s brilliant shame they can’t put the battery underneath the seat would make life so much easier 👍

      it´s a weight thing. Its engineered to have most weight in the middle or even more to the front to counter the driver weight.

    Hi mate I've noticed that you put your negative lead on the battery wrong it goes over the top of the battery you went around the side you might want to take it off and put it on right
