Bought another f4i.... but something is weird.
 

Hi guys, I bought another f4i today as a project f4i. I started it up and i don't know why but the idle perpetually gets higher i only let it rev til 3 grand before i shut it off because it was 4am. i am leaving today and putting it into storage. Now. Is this normal for it to idle high when cold? Because my current F4i doesnt. Also this new f4i feels a bit different. Do you think maybe the throttle bodies may be sticking causing it to idle high randomly?

Bottom like i guess is does your f4i when cold idle more then 2000rpm?
thanks

my bike does that too somewhat. I think the computer keeps it in high idle mode until the temperature gets to around 100 or so. After 100, my bike settles down. Play around with the throttle adjustment knob until it warms up.check back...

chech your manual idle control.. knob on left side under fairing.. turn it down a bit ( counterclockwise)

mine will idle up to 3k when cold, before settling at 1200. you should make final idle adjustments after its warmed up to normal temp.

What is normal temperature RPM? 1200?

owners manual says 1300 rpm+ or - 100. normal run temp over 175.

okay here is the next question then why does my current bike not idle high when cold they both are the same year! Mine starts up and idles as if warm. And how do I fix it
thanks much appreciated

Does the new one have pcIII. idle is controled by computer.
