Choke Slips?
 
Hi all. I have a 98, and when I pull the choke out, it generally slips back in, sometimes within 5 seconds, sometimes within a couple minutes - to *almost* all the way back in. It's kinda nice cause I never "forget" and leave my choke on, but then again, I'm also screwed if I want to drive a few blocks with it on.

Anyone heard of this?

Also, how does one "balance" the chokes?

Thanks!

Pull back the rubber boot (behind the knob) and tighten the knurled nut.

This ought to be a sticky.

Or just moved to the technical info one. Torque specs, wiring diagrams, and yes the common problems. The few things I found in there were a huge help and already had me spending a few hours "under" the bike. :-)

BTW - what's idle supposed to be set at on this bike? Before my latest service it had to be like 1500, now it seems like it'd idle at 750 rpm all day. I need to set it, balance the carbs, reset it, then check my TPS again.

1100-1200 stock spec.

If you have problems with clutch in stalling, bump it up to 1300-1400

Forget the TPS.
