RADIATOR PRESSURE CAP: CHECK If problems such as overheating or loss of coolant occur, check the entire system as described in Chapter 1. The pressure cap opening pressure should be checked by a dealer with the special tester required to do the job. If the cap is defective renew it.

COOLANT RESERVOIR: REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION

REMOVAL | ZX-7R AND ZX-9R B MODELS

Remove the right side lower faring panel (see Chapter 8)

Place suitable container underneath the reservoir. release the clip, then detach the radiator overflow hose from the base of the reservoir and allow the coolant to drain into the container (see illustration).

Slacken and remove the mounting screws and remove the reservoir, complete with its cover and breather hose (see illustration). On ZX-9R B models, recover the spacers which are fitted between the reservoir and engine (see illustration).

GENERAL INFORMATION Front suspension is by a pair of oil-dampened telescopic forks which have a conventional damper system and are adjustable for spring pre-load and compression and rebound damping. The swing arm is mounted onto the frame. The drive to rear wheel is by chain.


FRAME: INSPECTION AND REPAIR

The frame should not require attention unless accident damage has occurred. In most cases, frame renewal is the only satisfactory remedy for such damage.

A few frame specialists have the jigs and other equipment necessary for straightening the frame to required standard of accuracy, but even then there is no simple way of assessing to what extent the frame may have been over-stressed.

After the machine has accumulated a lot of miles, the frame should be examined closely for signs of cracking or splitting at the welded joints.

Loose engine mount bolts can cause ovaling or fracturing of the mounting tabs. Minor damage can often be repaired by specialist welding, depending on the extent of the damage.

Remember a frame which is out of alignment will cause handling problems. If misalignment is suspected as the result of an accident, it will be necessary to strip the machine completely so the frame can be thoroughly checked.

FOOTRESTS AND BRACKETS: REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION RIDER’S FOOTREST: REMOVAL/INSTALLATION

Remove the retaining clip from the footrest pivot pin, then withdraw the pivot pin and remove the footrest, noting the fitting of the return spring.

Installation is the reverse of removal.
