04 gsxr 600 running weak! help..

so my boy got this sick gsxr 600 '04 as a stuntbike. but it runs really weak on idle! even if you put it up to 4,500 you still have to gas it after you release the brake. i was having a hard time doing more than 2 staggered circles, wtf?? is it the motor or does the gsxr need a few mods? it has got the idle mod off course..

throttle bodies are sooooo delicate in the gixxers the wont take a hit at all and you have to replace the whole throttle bodies they dont sell them in parts ... 800 dollars dooooooo dooooooo

Re: 04 gsxr 600 running weak! help..

I have the same bike. its the trottle position sensor. if it is out of adjustment the slightest bit you wont have any low end power on idle. i had that problem and just changed the entire throttle body. fixed the issue. i also tried adjusting the tps to the proper setting and let me tell you that you are better off getting a new throttle body. hope this helps

Re: 04 gsxr 600 running weak! help..

so its my bike.. iddle is ****.. tps is adjustable, i now, but ive tried some different settings, and this is the best i (and hoegee tuning, the number 1 suzuki tuner in holland) can made of it, you talk about replacing the WHOLE trottle boddy? or replace only the TPS fore a new one?
and maybe its stupit, but i'm thinking to remove the second gasvalve from the trottle body? any experience with it?

stock.. and with a noisy exaust the problem is the same. only the trottle reaction is a little smoother with the stock one. iddle is the same both ways. any tips fore setting the tps?

and to tell it is a gixxer.. i now.. but this is a problem that must be fixable, there are riders here who rock them hard, seb5 is doing it also well on a gixxer.. i now it will never be a 636 or a f4i, you can buy a cheaterbike, or just practice harder, i keep on practicing till i can rock it hard.. but first i need to fix iddle.. this sucks

i had a similar problem and removed the entire lower butterfly flaps simply unscrewed the two screws on the plates in there left the rod going thru like that and it was a little twichy but the increased air flow helped it alot,,um and then i got a new set of throttle bodies to permanently fix the problem the main larger sensor is non adjustable and non removable from the entire unit

Re: 04 gsxr 600 running weak! help..

its not the twitchyness.. it s the fact it has no torque on idle whatsoever.. as soon as you think of the rearbrake the front end plummets down..

Re: 04 gsxr 600 running weak! help..

i got 4. gear itm set ur idle n ur done, twitchy yeah, but its a decnet bike, i got a 520 on my 04 gsx6r n a 2 brothers, feels good, a 56tooth n it'll feel great. the bikes arent for everyone, the k3's are great if u want arms like arnold. the 04+05 will make u a good all around rider cus u learn the different body to balance dynamics and that u cant gorilla scrape anymore, the 06+ well it wont make ur ***** drop sooner then later but it seperate the teenagers from the babies n u gotta baby a factory one cus of the pot metal used on the frame n weaker subframes. hit up son dooby for more advice he rode a 04/05 for a while before moving up and makes parts he'll give u tips on what needs reinforcement. if u run ff n can get it sent from the u.s., i found a guy on ebay $80 for a nice steel fairing stay
