Hi all,

New to bikes and new to this form so Hi everybody! As a first bike I picked myself up a 2007 sv650s, I absolutely love the bike so far apart from one niggling problem I'm having issues with high idle after about 10-15mins of driving, the bike will start fine and idle fine but then after about driving for a bit it starts to idle at around 2-4k rpm which makes it incredibly difficult to control in traffic. I know there is an idle adjuster on the bike and have tried adjusted it but it only seems to adjust the idle up but not down. In terms of the throttle cable it snaps back perfectly when i let off it and I have tried to twist it tighter in the closed direction to see if the cable is getting jammed but it doesn't have any effect. The bike has a throttle restrictor on it so not sure if this could be doing something to it.

Would anyone have any suggestions that might help fix the issue? would the TPS mod I've read about resolve it?

Cheers,

Andrew
