My friend, you havn't checked the oil (you say you don't know how) and you are talking about a rebuild?!?
Whoa! Slow down a little bit. Back up the horse. The very first thing you do - before you do anything else - is check the fluids! NO EXCEPTIIONS. Should be checked before EVERY RIDE. Your life depends on this! Anything you can't find or don't understand, you ask the seller - standing right there with YOUR money in his or her hand.
Find and read the owners manual - find the tool kit - find and check the battery. Look at the tires, wear, alignment, pressure. Check all electrical items, lights, horn, starter etc. DO NOT move this motorcycle until you know how to check the fluids and find them to be proper.
Your motorcycle is potentially 14 years old. To protect your investment, take your RM-Z 450 to the Suzuki dealer in your town and get it put into proper condition. After you do these things - NOW is the time to show it off to your friend.
Hey bro, throttle cable stuck, see if the carb mechanism is closed. Sometimes when you gun it it'll stick open. Get access to the carb and see if it is open or closed. If open then it is stuck, figure out if it is the cable or the carb mechanism that is caught and lube it. If the carb is closed you might have an air leak causing it to run lean but if this were the case it's rev high, but not red-line high. Cheers bro.
the idle buddy is too low,on the carb is a screw the ide screw turn it in 1/4 of a turn with the bike running untill it idles the way you want it too and it will idle the pic below ill help ya buddy
Ok, lower the idle and adjust the carb to best idle and turn down the idle and readjust the carb to best idle. back and forth till no change in idle speed. Good Luck
get the bike started, hold the engine at a high idle. while holding the idle high, adjust the air fuel mixture screw until it sounds smooth. rev it up a few times and see if the engine is "snappier". let it return to an idle, then adjust the idle screw. it may take a few tries to get it right, just listen to the engine.. if this dont work, you may consider re-jetting the carb. hope this helps...
on the back mono shock, there is adjustment the raise it up a little bit. The front are usually a gsa type shock, and you can put air into some of them to raise the front.
