Жыл бұрынToday we assemble our 1510cc Kawasaki ZX-14R. This engine is bored to 86mm with 13.5:1 pistons and a WEB Cam.
Watch part 1 where we measure clearances and balance the pistons and rods here: • Building a ZX14 Engine...

Unfortunately, I had camera issues towards the end of filming this build. This video has most of my footage.

U did good.but I would buy new 10 bolts for main journals and cam bolts.I had old used cam bolts just break off.I don't like APE cam chain tensioner unless the bike is not ridden alot.On deceleration the chain stretches.I just use a new factory tensioner.And change the oil every 500 to 700 miles.Other than that u did a good blue print.Every tolerance is on the middle.

What compression ratio did you settle on? Or did I miss that, was theren any head work work done?

I'm currently doing my first motor & frame rebuild on a 2007 GSX-R 750. I'm wanting to do every little detail that I can to increase the efficiency & power like a mild port job, GSX-R 1K Cams, etc.. I'm thinking of deleting the counterbalance shaft and knife edging the crank. How much did that run you & who did it? Any tips or tricks? Not planning on racing it.

I don’t remember how much the crank work was around 350 if I remember right. APE out of California did the work for me. Raising the compression is the one of the best ways to make more power. Pistons or smaller head gasket. Make sure to check your clearances. Be careful if you plan on doing the port work yourself. You can easily hurt the flow.

Hello I'm having problems with my zx1400r. It's not going pass 4000 rpm. No power studying. Act like I wanna cut off. I change my fuel pump not that I'm going to spark plugs an coils next. Have u have any this problems

My first guess would be fuel pressure. Possibly a clogged injector. Are all of the cylinders firing? You can check to see if you have a cold exhaust pipe to see if a cylinder is not firing
@empcycleworks 9 ай бұрын
I’ve also seen water in the fuel be as issue. Also, your cam timing may be off. But that’s the last thing I would check
@kencalip6129 5 ай бұрын
There is a micro screen inside the plastic housing we're the fuel pressure regulator goes that clogs up clean it!!!! and replace the regulator while it's out.....cheap fix the micro screen won't allow your injectors to get clogged it clogs here first if not the pick up filter screen!!! 😊

My 2015 zx14r just started spraying oil and coolant out the tail pipe. Has the Brock's full exhaust. Oil dripping from the exhaust connections. Anybody want it? Has about 5500 miles on it. It has never overheated or run low on oil or coolant.
