what bike can i get an idle adjuster screw off of for an f4i???

old man roger

900rr 600rr f4i , i think the 600rr is the longest

600rr (and I 'think' any other FI model) requires you to trim the end piece

On a carbed bike, the idle cable is just threaded. The FI ones are threaded, when with like a 1/2-3/4" piece of metal sticking off the end

I just trim them right before the threads, so you don't gotta worry about ******* up the threads

also, a 900rr setup runs like $13, and a 600rr is like $23 from my local honda dealer!

**** it might as well add it

make sure you lube your idle cable with some graphite or grease on the threads... It will get dry, and it will stick eventually.. Can't hurt to lube the stock idle cable either, I've had a couple bikes where those stuck too

old man roger

yup if you dont lube them they stick and break

so the idle cable i just bought should be lubed up before i throw it in?

old man roger

if you already installed it you can just spray some silicone lube on the threads

my750

mabey a stupid question but how long should the cable be?

old man roger

long enough so you can reach it easy

my750

like mine is like 8 inches. i dont really understand the point of having one?

old man roger

on the f4i the stock idle adjuster doesnt open the butterflies it just richens the mixture but when you add the second idle cable it works just like the throttle

old man roger

and man i could have made so much fun of this post

jaminjohnson

the one for the F3 works good to come out the right side

my750
