oneday Posted July 24, 2006 Report Share Posted July 24, 2006 this may be a stupid ? when the bike is at an idle, if i snap the throttle the rpm's raise then drop to almost an idle ( holds for about 4 secs) then returns to a normal idle. could this be a float adjustment? thank's for any feedback.. :shoothead: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted July 24, 2006 Report Share Posted July 24, 2006 Doubt it. More than likely a sticking cable and/or slide and/or TORS adjusters if you still have them. With the bike idling, turn the bars full lock to lock (one side to the other) see if that raises the idle as well...tell tale sign of binding cable.

oneday Posted July 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2006 could my idling problem be caused by a slightly bent needle? on 1 carb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted July 24, 2006 Report Share Posted July 24, 2006 Let's not beat around the bush here. Did you accidentally bend a needle when you took it apart or reassembled it? If so...just say so. Hell yes it could cause the idle problem, and that's if you're lucky. Keep it up...and it could cause it not to go back in, and stick half open. So...if you think you bent your needle, get new ones. Stock needles are junk anyways...get some Vito's or Dynojet needles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
