Hi,Since getting my bike back from the Hall sensor replacment job, my idle speed is a bit lumpy  🙁 Can someone tell me the OEM recommended idle speed and how to adjust it - on the cable screw adjustment on the LH side injector or is there something else that needs a tweak?Thanks for your assistance.Cheers,Mike

Hello again Mike, these things have all happened before. Have a look at this link and do some reading.Before playing with the throtle bodies though you need to be well mechanically minded and have some spare time you also will require a carb sync tool.and the bike should have had plugs and tappet clearances set air filter checked replaced TPS voltage set or take it back to the bike shop. Good Luckhttp://www.ibmwr.org/r-tech/oilheads/index.shtml

Thanks Bogser. I will take it back to the shop, as it did tick over well before the hall sensor problem and when they changed my fuel filter, he balanced the throttles and tick over idle speed, so why it seems lumpy (dips) now I have no idea. All's well apart from that though.Is this two I owe you now! 🙂Cheers,Mike
