+1 on the white wheels, and being a pain in the *** to keep clean. They look nice when they are clean, but you have to wipe them off after nearly every ride.

XD Winter just arrived so i have time to think of a color ! What chain lube you use? If you use a dry one with teflon its easyer to keep white wheels clean :P ) ! Thank you for advice ! Soon i will take apart the other engine ! i hardly wait ! racing camshafts, racing clutch , dynojet ! It has a valve noise or something ! It starts, has a good kick (much more power then the F2 stock motor i have now on it ) ,but i am scared to ride her with that noise ! Thank you for replaying me ! It's an honour to be a part of cbrforum.com ! Thank you and ride safe if in your country is warmer than here! In Romania there are 1-2 degrees celsius/ 34-36 fahrenheit !

There is an idle screw on the carbs, that is extended via a cable, with a twist **** at the end, and is mounted where you can reach it externally through the upper "slot" in the tail fairings on the left side.
Look at the item marked "7" in this fiche, and you will see the cable and twist ****:

Ronayers.com Microfiche Honda>Motorcycle>1993>CBR600F2>CARBURETOR COMPONENTS - F2 - 91-94

You can see the cable in this picture:



If you save this picture of my bike, and then zoom-in on it, you can see the adjuster **** sticking out just below and rearward of the fuel petcock switch:



Hopefully yours isn't mising!

It's a touch high, at 1500, but not too bad - most guys set there idle around 1200, it makes it easier to engage 1st from neutral, and is less fuel hungry.
As I'm sure you already know, you want the idle set when the engine is at full operating temperature.

Yes i know ...but i tought 1500 its just rigt...tomorow i will try 1200 and see how is running ! Thank you for your replay ! I have one more question about the oil ! For now i have Motorex 10w40 semysintetic... is that oki or i should change it to 15w50 ? Some friends told me 15w50 its better because the bike its old and it has some miles ! What do you think ? It runs grate with 10w40.. gearbox is oki , no strange sounds.... ! Thank you again for replay ! Ride safe !

10W-40 is fine... 20W-40 if you're racing... 20W-50 if your racing in a region that has predominantly VERY HIGH temperatures. Whatever you use, just make sure it is made for motorcycles!!
