Probably a bent shift fork internal to the transmission. No easy fix. will require total engine tear down.

Actually u can reach in and just pull the 3 prong connector right off of the bulb.Then pull off the rubber cover with the tab that is at the top of the circular rubber cover. The bulb is held in by a small wire that hooks on both sides. Replace the bulb and reverse the steps.There is no need to remove any fairings to replace the bulb.

have your coil tested if it turns over and everything but just wont fire it`s 99.9% of the time the coil

Yes, or it will run lean at high revs. You can bypass it as a get you home.

If you want to get the fuel out of the tank and into your engine...well YAH

Dude shift forks...no you dont have to spilt ****** can go threw oil pan just difficult since you are working under the bike....haynes manual will explain it all,,,im having same problem mine wont shift down and no cant get neutral...so gotta find a good place on the web to buy chaep good parts!

hi there, it should be a screw on the same mount as your clutch lever, with a seperate cable leading down to the right hand side of the carbs. alternatively, there may be a knurled adjuster on a cable sticking out the side of one of the fairings. hope this is helpful

well, my friend i suggest to change all your spark plug, after you've done it, then probably we have a changes...good luck buddy...

The cable has snapped.

sounds like a faulty earth wire which is usually black and screws toanything metal take it off and clean with light sandpaper and replace

my guess is your fuel has gone off drain tank and replace fuel with at least 95 octane (do not use E10) you also may need to replace fuel filter which is under the tank and clean carby bowls

try emptying out fuel and replace with new fuel at least 95 or above octane (do not use E10) if this dosnt work change the fuel filter under the tank and may need to clean carbies

you cannot the battery is under the seat which must be removed by firstly removing the rear seat with the key and there is one 10mm bolt at back of front seat once removed the battery is easily accessed

they only way is to cut the wires which is not recommended you can get the number of the top of the ignition and have one cut

they dont go from tank to carbs they go from tank to fuel tap then from fuel tap to carbs.

The ZX6, as with most four-cylinder motorcycle engines, is mounted transversely in the frame. When sitting on the bike, the cylinders are numbered 1-2-3-4 left to right.Firing Order: the firing order is 1-2-4-3. There is no distributor for the engine, as ignition is controlled electronically.Extra Ignition Information: there are only two ignition coils for this engine. Each coil has two spark plug wires. One coil fires cylinders 1 and 4. The other fires cylinders 2 and 3.Addtional details in this link: images/4/45/ZX600E13.PDFhope this helps (remember to rating this free answer).

Assuming the bike is yours to ride, you could, simply remove the ignition switch, unscrew the plastic lower and separate the switch from the lock and then turn the the centre of the switch with a screwdriver until the ignition lights up, when the lock is removed take it and have a new key cut.

This problem is the alternator is not charging. You will need to trouble shoot the stator, rectifier/regulator. You will need a volt/ohm meter. It is best to get you a good manual. But as always check your fuses. The stator will produce AC voltage in about the 27 - 32 volts AC range at idle. Unplug the stator and check for voltage there at this plug when idling. Next plug the rectifier back in and check for voltage at the battery at idle, should be in the 14 volts DC range. If you are getting the proper AC voltage at the two wires on the stator and only battery voltage at the battery, then your rec/reg is not doing its thing. Hope this helps FixYa up.
