2010 kawasaki KX 65 Questions & Answers
I need to know how
Just remove the cotter pin on the right end of the axle then remove the nut and then remove the axle by pulling outward to towards the left fork.
Hi i would just like to know if there is a common
No common problems to the KX in particular but very common to all race bred 2 strokes is they all require lots of love and attention so clean air and pilot jets regularly clean air filters regularly make adjustments to the fuel air mix screws to suit time of day and altitudes etc regularly and if you ever have problems starting and stalling throw away the spark plug and replace as you no doubt would have fouled it and the plugs never return back well after that no matter how new they may be!
Revisit your fuel oil mix also depending how you ride and where you ride you may want anything from 30:1 mix to 50:1 mix to give reliability (35:1 - 40:1 mix is good place to start?)
I would change spark plug and clean pilot jet in carbi as first steps for this problem then once sarting again do some tests on different fuel mixes (small steps at a time though) to see what works best
good luck regards Jamie
I have a kx60 and
Not really sure what you are asking, but...if you mean that the wheel wobbles after you tighten the axle nut, your rear wheel bearings are worn out. These are replacable.
How to install vforce 3
You may grind off material on the side of the V-Force block as long as you don't go past the casting and carb boot surfaces. It won't affect the performance at all. Good luck!
A piece of metal scrathed
There should be no play up and down. Any play is coming from a worn out needle bearing on the crank. A bit side to side is okay and normal. The crank will need to come out then it gets pressed apart and fitted with a new bearing. Price out the difference in cost of fixing the crank verses getting a new $170 crank assembly.What probably happened is a broken piston ring extended into a cylinder port and the piston against the ring is what gouged the cylinder and head.
Please rate my answer.
Its a 98 kx60 and
Mixing the gas right doesn't mean that your jetting is right. You need a clean air filter, and a good set of piston rings (good compression) to maintain a good running engine. If your main jet is too big (fat) it will let more fuel in at 1/4 to full throttle, and this may cause your bog.
I have a 2002 Kawasaki Mean Streak 1500 I'm customizing it can the rectifier be moved so it's not just hanging there.
Absolutely, the rectifier on your Kawasaki Mean Streak 1500 can be repositioned during a customization project. The rectifier is a crucial part of the motorcycle's electrical system, converting alternating current (AC) from the stator into direct current (DC) to charge the battery and power the bike's electrical components.
While relocating the rectifier, it's important to consider a few key factors:
- Space and Mounting: Assess the available space on the motorcycle to find a suitable location for the rectifier. Ensure that the new position allows for proper mounting and secure attachment without interfering with other components or the bike's functionality.
- Heat Dissipation: The rectifier generates heat during operation, so it's essential to relocate it to an area with adequate airflow for cooling. Mounting it in a well-ventilated area helps prevent overheating issues.
- Wiring and Connections: When moving the rectifier, ensure that the wiring can be appropriately rerouted to reach its new location. Take care to maintain proper electrical connections and ensure a secure, stable wiring setup.
- Protection: Consider adding protective measures, such as shields or guards, to safeguard the relocated rectifier from road debris, water, or other potential hazards.
Modifying the placement of the rectifier may require custom brackets, mounts, or fabrication work to secure it in the desired location. It's crucial to execute the relocation carefully, maintaining proper electrical connections and ensuring the rectifier's safety and functionality.
If you're not confident in performing these modifications yourself, consulting a professional motorcycle mechanic or technician with experience in customizations can be highly beneficial. They can offer guidance, expertise, and ensure that the modifications are carried out safely and effectively.

I have a 2002 Kawasaki Mean Streak 1500 can't find the fuse for the break light can anyone help
I'm assuming you have already checked the actual bulb is still OK? The bike uses a 'twin element' bulb so the tail light element might still work but the brake light element has blown. It's designed to be two bulbs in one so it takes up less space.On a lot of vehicles some electrical features share a fuse and only some of them are marked on the fuse box lid. Has anything else stopped working? On some Kawasaki bikes the brake light shares a fuse with the horn and the tail light so if the fuse has blown all three won't be working. Check the fuse labelled as the Horn to see if that has 'Popped'.*NOTE* ONLY replace fuses with one of the SAME Amp rating as lower 'A' fuses will blow and higher 'A' fuses won't protect your electrics.Bulbs and fuses are usually cheap to buy so you could replace them anyway before thinking it's going to be a 'Big' repair.

I have a zzr 600 zzr kawasaki and all at once it quit firing could you please help?
If your Kawasaki ZZR600 suddenly stopped firing, there are several possible reasons for this. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can take to identify and resolve the issue:
- Check the battery: A weak or dead battery can prevent the engine from starting. Make sure the battery is fully charged and has a voltage of at least 12.5 volts.
- Check the spark plugs: The spark plugs may be fouled, worn out, or damaged. Remove the spark plugs and inspect them for signs of wear or damage. If necessary, replace the spark plugs.
- Check the ignition system: The ignition coils, ignition module, and wiring may be faulty. Use a multimeter to test the resistance of the coils and check the wiring for continuity. Replace any faulty components as needed.
- Check the fuel system: The fuel filter may be clogged, the fuel pump may be faulty, or there may be a problem with the fuel injectors. Check the fuel pressure and flow, and inspect the fuel filter and injectors for any signs of clogging or damage.
- Check the carburetor (if applicable): If your ZZR600 has a carburetor, it may be dirty or clogged. Remove the carburetor and clean it thoroughly with carburetor cleaner.
- Check the camshaft timing: If the camshaft timing is off, the engine may not fire properly. Check the timing marks and adjust the camshaft if necessary.
If none of these steps resolve the issue, you may need to take your ZZR600 to a qualified mechanic for further diagnosis and repair.

2000 kawasaki kdx 220r engie oil is coming out of a over flow hose on the carb when running
There could be several reasons why oil is coming out of the overflow hose on your Kawasaki KDX 220R. Some possible causes include:
- Overfilled oil tank: If the oil tank is overfilled, oil can get forced out of the overflow hose when the engine is running.
- Worn or damaged oil seals: If the oil seals in the engine or transmission are worn or damaged, oil can leak out of the engine and into the carburetor, where it can then be forced out of the overflow hose.
- Clogged or damaged oil cooler: If the oil cooler is clogged or damaged, it can cause excess oil to build up in the engine, which can then be forced out of the overflow hose.
It's important to identify and address the cause of the oil leak as soon as possible, as running the engine with excessive oil can cause serious damage. I recommend taking your bike to a mechanic for a thorough inspection and repair.
