All sorted, it was me being stupid! After getting to page 16 or something I came across the Suzuki TL1000 TPS youtube clip and it was the best days work I did. I thought I was letting my bike get warm but it obviously wasn't hot enough. After disconnecting my service tool (funny name for a bit of wire!) I saw that I was too cold. This meant that it was impossible to set anywhere near right. After warming it up properly and following the youtube guide of making the line go to the top, then tap it back until the line goes to the middle, everything runs perfect. Can't notice much difference to what it was before but at least I know its correctly calibrated!
Regards and cheers for the guide. |

Well, thanks so much for this. Relatively painless using a 1/4" ratchet, replaced the odd Torx security bolts with M5-16mm cap-head in case I ever have to do this again. Adjusted the transition time down from 3200 rpm to 1450, and now the herky-jerky low speed response is almost completely gone. Much, much more enjoyable!
Thanks again! |

Hi chaps and chapettes,
Tried this mod but could only get the bugger to idle properly when TPS set to just over 2000RPM, every time I attempted to go lower she coughed and spluttered went pop(almost like backfiring) and cut out! Decided to leave it as low as I could get it, but wanted to check in case i'm missing something. I did notice the idle dropped to 1000RPM for some reason when TPS set to below 2000RPM ??? Originally full injection was kicking in around 3500RPM. Noticed a hell of difference though even if its not all the way down! Mines a 650s k6 by the way. Tried it also after a longish run but same result, very weird !!! ![]() |

your supposed to set the tickover at the same time to compensate the drop in revs.

Balance the throttles.

Just done mine, was only reacting at near to 4000rpm, now got it down to 1750 or so. They weren't joking when they said it takes a small adjustment! As suggested I replaced the Torx screws with Allen screws, although the originals weren't really a problem with the correct bit.

Thanks for the guide!
It made a noticeable difference on my bike. It was easy enough that I could do it myself and I am a novice by any measure. Was at 3500 rpm, now at 1600rpm, idle down from 1600 to 1200. I had no problems with the torx screws, so they are still in. Cheers |

Got all tooled up to do this today only to find that the security torx bit set I bought had 5 points on each bit. The tps needs 6. After another search around online I'm finding all 5s.
Can anyone link me to where I can get a 6 pointer from? I've checked the original link to radio shack which is a discontinued product and the replacement is a 5 pointer. Last edited by Ginja_Joe; 29-04-13 at 09:27 PM. |
