NorBSATriGuzzi Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 What does your V11 Idle at...mine is about 1500rpm...seems high. Is there an idle speed knob? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VA Sean Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 That sounds kinda high to me. I think mine probably idles around 800-900 RPM. I'll check tonight (have to cage it to work). Is you fast idle lever pinned down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badmotogoozer Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 The fast idle lever is on the left bar. The lever that moves up and down (some may call it a choke) increasing the idle when starting cold. Check that it is fully "up". Then go to the left side throttle body - in front and below you will see where the fast idle cable attaches (move the lever and you'll find it). With the lever fully up, loosen the cable clamp and make sure there is no tension in the cable when you do it back up. If this does not help, it is time to set your TPS (throttle position sensor). Lots of threads on this. good luck! Rj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VA Sean Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 On a dead cold start in the morning, the idle is about 900 rpm. After riding for a while, it seems to idle in the 1,100-1,200 range when I pull up to a stop. So I think 1,500 is still a bit high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest h8chains Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 Once the engine is warmed up it's 1K for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ballacraine Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 1100rpm It was lower but was hunting so I took it up from c. 900rpm. It sounds happier now! Nige. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Nogbad Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 1000 to 1100. Sounds happy. You don't want to go too slow because this makes the clutch rattle worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
