1984 FJ600

#1 Unread post by jonnymar »

Someone gave me this non running bike complete with title. Bike would not turn over. I am starting this "project" on the assumption that the engine is not seized. I tried pop starting and the could not get the rear tire to turn. The rear tire is really bald so I figured it just wasn't grabbing. Most of the electrical on this bike is fried. I have purchased a couple of things to replace...(wiring harness, coils, rectifier) but am worried it might be for nothing. Is there a way to turn the engine manually without the starter? The speedo only had 7K on it so I'm sure the compression is ok.
