i need to ask my 650 brothers out there sth..

 

wats ur idling like? mine has been below 1000rpm even after 10 mins of riding and abt 4-5mins of warming up.. and due to this, i keep stalling.. for eg. half clutching at 1st gear den clutch in fully would stall the engine.. or clutching in and holding in for a lil longer than usual when changing gears..

 

now im wondering whether idling and juz adjusting it would be fine or izzit sum other components tat i shld be worry abt..

 

 

hi xanc,

 

the timer should be adjusted to slightly above 1k rpm or 1.5k rpm when starts the engine then it will not stalled. the timer screw is just below the fuel tank at the left side. it will go loose after a while and need to be re-adjusted to prevent it from stalling.

 

my idling rpm is constantly at 1.5k.

regards,

not sure bout the difference between dl650 n dl1k...

my idling for dl1k is at 1000rpm....

 

and i thought most vtwin engines idle at 1-1.2k....

maybe ur bike need a tbs...

 

me and another strommer will be getting a carbtune from a fellow forumer...

once collected we can do the tbs together...

so if anyone willing to chip in for the cost of the carbtune let me know....we will be sharing it among the strommers...

Hi guys, sorry for off-topic. I bought a second hand ERP IU unit and tried doing my own install. First I tested with a normal battery and the IU says "ON" instead of showing the cashcard $value$. Does anybody know why? Do we need to register IU units with the PAP (pay and pay) government to tag to the new bike first?

 

I tried this......

Idle speed for the DL650 is 1300 rpm +/- 100

Idle speed for the DL1000 is 1200 rpm +/- 100

 

Set the idle speed only when the engine is thoroughly warmed up (> 10 km ride).

thnx everyone for their help! will update again after adjusting.. =)

 

regarding the sad passing of our fellow biker in thailand, we shld all be really careful when we are in a foreign land n not take for granted the less stricter rules they have.. jus this past december, ive seen a number of my frens having accidents in msia n in thailand which really scares me.. so i beg for caution for all of us who intends to ride north.. and a real heartfelt thanks to the thai biker who notified the forum.. friendship noes no boundaries..

Bro I dun mind sharing the cost... How much should I/anyone chip in??? I prefer to invest all those DIYing stuffs. And I can support tools too. I personally find satisfaction to repair my bike with my own hand.

 

Sometimes i envy those ang mohs at VSRI to DIY their bikes.

You can learn that, too.

 

What are you going to do with the carbtune? I am not convinced at all it works on catalytic converter bikes like the V-Strom. This is more useful for carburator bikes, IMO.
