    "Back off" meaning

    in Technical Topics

    Posted

    Thankyou very much Tom!

    You are very clear.

     

    I'll try to screw it until it touches the throttle using the thinest feeler gauge, as both idle screws were touching the throttle boddies until now.

     

    Best regards.

    Another question concerning the TPS Set up an Throttle Balance Tuning tutorial:

    At the begining of the procedure is writen that right throttle idle screw should be backed off. After that all actions are performed with left throttle idle screw, and nothing else is writen concerning right throttle idle screw. :unsure:

    What should be done with it at the end of the procedure? I asume backed off is not its final position.... so.... should I screw it in till it contact with the piece it has just in front. This way both idle screws would be exactly in the same position, holding up the springs in idle position (when throttle conpletely closed)

     

    Thanks in advance, and sorry for my english.

     

    Best regads.

    Yes......You go in the opposite direction e.g. "backing off the throttle" , etc........ 99% of all fasteners are r.h. thread...when you unscrew a fastener, you back off from it's last positon.....

     

    Thank you very much Carl. Always a pleasure to here from you.

    Problem with Gear Box

    in Technical Topics

    Posted

    First to look at the external linkage at the foot lever. It should pivot up and down, pulling a short rod which rotates a small lever pinched onto a shaft coming out of the left gear box side case.

     

    Does the action of the foot lever appear to rotate the shaft?

     

    All external linkage look ok.

     

     

    Thanks docc

     

    If all external linkage is moving and it feels like nothing internally is engaging it is likely a broken pawl spring. Although I didn't know the 04 model was still prone to this. A pretty easy fix once the starter and transmission cover are removed if you are one to try it yourself. Much has been written about this failure here. Do a search.

     

    Thank you very much Dan.

    I've realized too, that the bike have a small leak just below the gearbox. Really small, as tehe are no oil on the ground of my parking, but there are oil on the cross pipe of the exaust, and a drop of oil below the gear box.

     

    Thanks docc

    Hi guys.

    I`ve a problem with the gearbox (I supose) of my V11 Cafe Sport 2004.

    After more than three weeks without using the bike I tried this afternoon:

     

    In put neutral gear, turn on, and everitihng looked like been ok. But.....

    I started riding, first gear... and when I tried to put second gear the bike remained in first gear.

    My sensaations concerning the lever are: nothing hapens. The lever goes up and down without any sensation or reaction on my foot.

    Edit: Not possible to put neutral gear agaqin either.

     

     

    Do you know if it is a typical breakdown? (expensive?)

    Wath could have hapend?

     

    Thanks indeed.

    Best regards
