I just bought an 03 gsxr 600 that was wrecked. The bike will not crank, mechanic said it's a "tip over switch." Do these Suzukis have a switch that can be reset or do you guys think something is wrong with this thing. Thanks for all the help :YEAH

the tip over switch works when its running so when it lay's down it cuts out. stand it up, turn it off and back on agein and it should start up.
if it still aint starting then check ann the wirez are pluged in ok under the seat and around the battery.
agein the switch resets as soon as you turn it off and on agein

some times when i drop my bike hard enough the bike wont start up unless i give the tip over sensor a good smack

Ltlf4i

thanks guys i'll try both techniques. also where is the tip sensor suppose to be located...just incase i need to give it a good smack. Also, how do you guys like stunting these bikes?

Ltlf4i

anyone else have any problems with their Suzuki?

take it apart and fill it with silicone or zip tie both sides so the metal ring doesnt move

Suicidl

or fill it up with paper towel so it does not move

Ltlf4i

dam...i thought you were joking. looks easy enough to remove this piece. Thanks for the help...this 600 has 3300 miles on it...i've heard that these bikes have a problem with the oil pump starving? ...i'm a honda man myself and know about them but this is totally new to me...any know of these myths or maybe their true? I dunno...thanks for the help....maybe i should just stunt the f4i and ride the Gixxer on weekends? :YEAH also, so if this bike doesn't start when i go to pick it up....what do i need to check for on the gixxers...sorry if i'm pissing you guys off

no its cool ... not everyone knows everything right away gotta learn somehow ...
yes def get a oil pickup from stuntex and the engine will be good to go ...

and between the two i would say stunt the f4i ... if it was a 04-05 gix then i would say stick with it

Ltlf4i

ok then...i have a 01 f4i with a really nice setup on it...new paintjob, exhaust, sprocket, tires, and undertail etc....all that jazz and i'd hate to trash it...i'm totally confussed here...if i could get 5 out of this suzuki after repair...i would stunt the f4i...what do you think? what would you do? I bought the f4i for 5 and the gsxr for 1200?

3824

depends on if you want to trash the 5 grand f4i ... but based on your situation i would say stunt the gixxer if your just starting out ... get that oil pickup on and the engine will be golden

Ltlf4i

hey thanks for the help scott..i'll check on those oil pickups in the morning...i guess i'll just stunt the gixxer since it doesn't have side fairings or an upper on it...if you're goin to stuntwars...look for this thing bein pink maybe i'll run across you there...if you have anymore advice in the future i'd appreciate it..thanks again

-Ludo

what they all said, but i've never had a problem with it,
i'm on my second gsxr 6 but only cuz some di(k in a car hit me off

Ltlf4i

got the sensor fixed and it runs great. Now i need some advice on a cage and a bar. My friend has a freestyle he's trying to sell me. What do you guys think...i would like to keep the exhaust the stock length

-Ludo

the can dont touch at all, no cuttin needed, i can scrap the tail light without a bar and it still dont touch the can.
got a 905 cage and its stronger then the bike lol, but its up to you, they all work fine, its just looks thats the big differents

Ltlf4i

lol..i wont be needing the 12 for a while but might as well get it from the lady while christmas is here. i've been looking at the 905 and i think i might go with that one. post some pics up of yours if you can. thanks

Danger_Dave

i've got a 905 external bar and i love it, i wish i had some pics.
i've got an 03 750 and didnt need to cut any plastics to install that f*cker.
just had the trim the trunk tray a little bit though.
only problem with this pretty stuntbike is i cant stick my foot in the bar,
but oh well, no handers with a passenger peg work as long as you put your face up on the windscreen.
and yeah what he said i think pretty much all cages will get the job done,
i'm not sure who has the best, everybody has good and bad experiences with different manufacturers, i just got a f.i. cuz thats what alot of pro's use and i figure if its good for them its good for me.

-Ludo

the only pic's i've got off my cage and there old one's, aint rockin the fur no more

only cuttin needed is one side, and its only an ich or so
