High Idle Issue
Hey guys-
I just recently picked up a 1999 F4 with about 68,000 km. It was running quite mint till the other day when I ran out of gas due to a faulty 'low fuel' light. My cell phone was dead, so I asked a resident in the area if I could borrow some fuel. Feeling quite worried about using random lawn mower petrol in my bike, I held my breath, and took the last resort. I managed to get myself to a near by gas station to fill up.
After I fill up with proper premium gas. I notice my idle is roughly in the 2,000RPM range. No change in performance, just a higher idle now. I try and unwind the idle screw but still no change. I inspect my intake for a possible vacuum leaks but no dice. The bike was idling fine before I ran out of gas. Any ideas?

If your valves get out of whack or you fully separate your carb rail, then you have to resync.
as long as you didn't touch the sync screws, that shouldn't be your issue.
