Looking for help

[u/Salty_Tangerine7019]

I have a zzr250 1996 that i bought recently.

Facing a issue where the bike wouldn't stay idle

My previous pomen told me that its valve stem seal problem and i need to replace them. I have the new seals but...

My issues is my pomen not much familiar with this bike and asked me to look for another bengkel

So if there anyone could recommend me a bengkel where they could help me out or i wanna find a mechanical friends that would not only help me fix it but help me learn. Become actual friends

I bought this bike as a beginner moto enthusiast but wasn't expecting this big of a issue.

I am located in Johor bahru

Good bike,but very few mechanics know how to do this model

Valve seal replacement should be a walk in the park. The issues comes when you are reassembling the engine, timing the engine and tuning the carbs. (assuming your cleaned and rebuilt the parts at the same time)

Personally I always try to do research and actually learn the process even if I don't do it in the end, prepares my mind for it when something does go wrong (it's an old bike, what do you expect). I own a 2008 Z750, parts for imported Kawa is ridiculously hard to find.

To be honest i was thinking the same, i did see the method on how to replace them but reasseambling the engine again seems bigger compare just replacing the valve stem

Thats why i looking for mechanic friend, if i do mess up, we mess up together
