idle

I just purchased a 1996 400 with a 15/1 compression, I cannot get the bike to start with out having to pull it behind a car. Everything on the bike seems to be in great condition. Its my second bike I have owned and paid $500 for it. I guess the bike was raced in the china hat race a few years...

Bike is a 650 with a dellorto carb. It runs good othertwise, but if you rev it, it stays on 3000rpm for a while, then drops to normal idle of 2000rpm. Jetting: some drilled main jet (just under 2mm), needle clip pos. 3, needle K51, DR272, pilot jet 40, and air screw 1.5 turns out. I tried to...

Hello everyone, New to the site. Finaly got my hands on a Husa!!! (I've wanted one since this bike came out) She does come with some issues though. Bike will not idle and has a flat spot on top of the rpm range. It takes me 5 or 6 kicks to bring here to life then throttle up or she dies and it...

hi my problem is i have a 03 FE 400 that rides spot on i think when i let the bike idle (tick over ) when riding down hills or stopping the engine stalls I've turned the tick over up to 2000 rpm and it still does it but not as much I've cleaned the air filter and cleaned the plug what is nearly...

Hi All In need of some help! My Berg has just started to hold a higher idle speed (approx 2500-3000 rpm) when shutting the throttle off for about 3-4 secs before returning to normal . It seems to be intermittent and only does it when warm.... Also i've noticed if you pull the clutch, the...

Hi all, annoying problem with my 650 advise appreciated. Lets say I'm sat at traffic lights and it's been ticking over for 20 seconds or more, when I slowly open the throttle to pull away sometimes it stalls. If I were to rev it quick then it may just bog slightly then pick up. Have played with...

Hi all can anyone tell me if the 09 berg has an idle speed ajustment?This may be an odd question but the bike was delivered without the manual and ive found it to idle quite fast even after warm up. cheers

Hi, thanks to this forum I now have a new 07 FE 650, which I received in a crate. During the past weekends I've been slowly assembling it together. So far only one issue, when I yank the throttle open from idle, the engine stalls 1 out 5 times, it just stops. The jetting is the...

hi guys, when my bike last came out of the garage it had a few starting problems... i found out that the idle screw was wound too far out and when i wound it in to where it would idle it started absolutel spot on! only thing is about a month on i had more starting problems and cured it by...

To all the Dellorto gurus out there I've got a couple of problems with mine. Problem 1. The idle speed stays 5/600 rpm higher for a few seconds after it's been revved. Eg. The bike idles at a nice pace then when you ride or rev it and wind off the throttle the revs will stay up a bit...

I've been working on a friend's 04 FE650 for the past 3 days. When he bought the bike the button wouldn't start it because it seemed to not spin it fast enough, he could only kick it. I suspected decomp issues, so we tore it down and I adjusted the exhaust valves and cleaned up some cruddy...

Been making some changes to the setup with Dale's jet kit. Clip now in 3rd groove down instead of 4th down as recommended. (needle drops to lean out mixture) Adjustable idle air scew at the recommended half turn out. Fuel screw at half turn out instead of the recommended 1.5 turns out. #48...

just looking for a quick answer to this checking through a 650FE from 2003 and it settles to one idle and then 2-3 seconds later it drops to another! ignition or carb? any ideas? regards Taffy

The logitech vapor comp on my bike is telling me that it is doing about 1400rpm at tick over. Not sure if this is right or not. Does anyone have a view? Maybe the vapor is reading too high due to one of the factors I put in to it to programme it. Bike idles evenly and exhaust note doesn't sound...

After my FE 450 has become hot, the idle is a bit high for some seconds after going off the throttle. Is there any adjustment for this problem? Could it be the "throttle position sensor" making this happend?

HELP. I just got a new 2007 FE650E (USA Version) from the factory direct. I set it up straight out of the box and fired it up but it wont idle, and on deceleration it backfires more than it should. I set the fuel screw to the factory spec in the manual (half a turn) and literally turned the...
