I was just looking at the RC eng. website and it looks like they offer an injector cleaning and testing service at a cost of $26.50 per injector. Pretty reasonable when compared to the cost of new ones. Here is a link to their site.

Just picked up my injectors this afternoon from a local shop in Forest Park Georgia (Turbo Electronic Diesel). They charged me $25 per injector to clean and test. One injector was not doing well but 3 of the 4 were perfect. I am going to install the injectors, new fuel line and new vacuum line this weekend and see if I make any progress.

The bike was last registered in 2002 and rarely run. As a result, he could not get it to run right properly. I am hopeful that a thorough fuel cleaning and fuel line replacement will result in a running bike. I plan to start removing the fuel injectors this week and find replacements or have them refurbished.

You may want to swap out the control module and see if that fixes it. Your injectors may be fine, based on the symptoms it sounds like the controller that drives them is not working.

Great advice, just wish someone lived in Atlanta that has the same bike. Worse case, I will install the Microsquirt System. This is available through a local dealer. Please let me know if you know anyone close to Atlanta that would be willing to test my bike with their computer.

david have the same bike with the same problem. got a kz man working on it now, but
have had no progress. rrd the injectors new coils, new battery, have tried another
control box, but still stalls and will not start. email me please and maybe we can

The website www.repairmanual.com may have information you need. I have a 82 GPZ1100 B2 with a similar FI setup.
