idle revs......
 
sorry if this one's been done many times....

recently had my bike back from its service everything is now lovely and smoothe....however i think it idles a tad high. part of me is thinking the garage is probably right to set it how they have but part of me is thinking its not right

recommended idle speeds would be lovely, and where's me screw type thingy to adjust it? i've not looked so sorry if its blindingly obvious!!!

keep mine at 1200 in summer and 1500 in the winter, get very few problems


the idle screw is left hand side just above the engine in the fairing hole... (I think from memory) If you've not really used it spray some wd40 on it to loosen it up a bit

mine's idling around the 12. blimey, it must have been struggling pre-service, it was more like 750-900 !
