If you haven't got a Haynes, get one, keep reporting back here, everyone will try and help as much as they can.

Something worth trying, to maybe eliminate it from consideration is what I had to end up doing now and then on an old ZXR750 I had years ago (with a ZX-9 engine in it, nice bike...) - sometimes the bike just refused to start, often when warm, for no apparent reason, and after having a modular problem on a car a few years previously I learnt that if it didn't start, unplug the cdi box and then reconnect it and voilÃ*! the annoying sod would start straight away > It was probably down to a malfunctioning transistor in the cdi, but whatever the cause of the issue, both car and bike never failed to start after doing that. It might be worth trying on your ZX - the cdi will probably be under the rider's seat, a large flattish unit with one or two multi-plugs connecting to it. If you already have it partially dismantled it should be easy enough to find and it's a simple look-see.

Ok,

Have had the same on the girlfriends scoot.....

1. Is there a spark? Take one plug out at a time and ground againg engine/ frame etc to check.
2. Is the spark (if present) white?
3. Are the Ht leads on in the correct order?
4. Is there not a smell of fuel?
5. Are there any broken or corroded wires?

If the answer to these is NO then you have an ignition issue. If the answer is YES you have a fuel issue.

The ignition could be a duff coil if one plug is affected, a duff crank pick up, bad connections or a fubar CDi (what I've got).

The fuel could be a bad pump, stale fuel, blocked pipe or jet. Or the fuel tap not on.....

Hope this helps!!!!
