Help, problems with my CBR

[Coyote]

Turn it clockwise to increase the idle. The idle for CBR250's is 2200rpm +/-500 so if its at 1000 its way too low. Just turn your bike on and keep turning it clockwise till you notice the idle going high, like up to 5000rpm then slowly turn the knob the other way till it is around 2000rpm.

I though it was 1500rpm?

Got mine at about 2000 anyway

1500 is what the manual says... I've got mine there and it runs sweet as.

[FEINT]

I adjusted mine to 1750 just below 2000rpm.. and it is all good. I think it is smoother then it was before.

after trying a few different settings i've finally got it in the right spot. it now idles around 1500 rpm and i got stuck in the traffic today and had no problem with the bike stalling or anything so that's great... thanks a lot for the help u guys... especially bugjuice and alarumba u guys rock

Wow, it was almost a year ago that this thread was started!

I will have a looksey on my 600 tomorrow and see where it goes for sure. Can't say I have ever been tempted to unwind it though.
Adjusted it for the first time in two years (since I bought the bike) for a rider training course last week.

*revives*
My CBR250's been doing the same thing..
I'll go have a look for the screw/knob thing after class and say if it's fixed or not when i get home :P

Thanks in advance, yay for old threads!

[Wasp]

so is my bandit but theres also rumors of faulty coils and melted wires for me...

[Cabbit]

I decided not to look for it because it was dark..

but now i'm just not going to touch anything till i find out what's going on..
