I just bought a 2005 Katana 600. I had it loaded in my truck and the bike would not start because of a dead battery, so i went and bought a new one....1st try the bike started fine in the back of my truck only it was idleing a little low. Then the next day i went to lowe's to buy a board to get it out of my truck and when i got it down i tried to put it on its center stand and it fell over....not hard i caught most of it....then when i started it it ran for about 3 seconds and died......I figured i just flooded the carbs so i let it sit all day......But still it will not start.....and when it does get going it only runs for about 1 sec before dying.....i took the filter out and cleaned it, also took the spark plugs out and cleaned them....I check down inside the carbs and they looked clean.....I have no idea what else may be wrong for it not to stay running....Please help if anyone knows......ALSO IF ANYONE KNOWS HOW TO GET A FREE OWNERS MANUAL ONLINE OR HAS A COPY THEY CAN EMAIL ME IN PDF. FILE THAT WOULD BE AWESOME....THANKS.
