Try pulling on the wiring to the ignition switch and kill switch with the handle bars straight, if the engine cuts out then you have a broken or damaged wire in the loom, cut the wiring loom open and pull on the wires one at a time untill it cuts out, the wire you pull when it cuts out will be the one you need to repair/ replace

My 1996 zx7r keeps poping the ignition fuse

when you install a new fuse or only when you turn the key on ??? more info would help here. but if its just when you install the fuse suspect your problem is before the switch. if when you turn the key on, I'd start looking at getting a wiring diagram

2002 Kawasaki zx7r cuts out between 4 and 6 rpm

check for sticking floats and float valves to sort out the spitting gas and lift the needles by 1 or 2 notches to sort the 4000-6000 problem

It needs smaller jets, it is over fuelling.

Im having issues with the 1997 zx7r cold starting. I just had the carbs cleaned by a shop and they made sure the choke was working properly.

my last bike was a 1998 zx7r that i had from new. it was always a pig to start if i didnt get it right.
i had to start it with full choke and NEVER touch the throttle or it will never go.
keep hitting the starter if you have to but dont touch that throttle.

I need to add a battery in a 1999 kawasaki zx7r how to remove the seat on the bike

If you put your ignition key in the lock alongdide the rear seat and turn anti clockwise, the rear seat lifts from there and when removed the front seat will lift up.
Hope that helps.

Bike cuts out when i turn the handle bars on full lock

Sounds like the insulation on some of the ignition wiring is worn through, and on full lock is making electrical contact with ground.
