All 15- 2,000 RPM idle driving me nuts! Folks, It's fixed! Thanks for all your suggestions. Sorry for the delay in replying. I to wanted to get to the bottom of this before replying. Since my last post (with the eBay throttle body on) I tried disconnecting…
- 2,000 RPM idle driving me nuts! 1 hour ago, RC36B Could this be missing/faulty engine temperature sensor resulting in mis-adjusted idle? Would that not cause the MIL to come on? I've checked for DTC error codes are there aren't any. Thanks for the…
- 2,000 RPM idle driving me nuts! 39 minutes ago, TheDutchy Not sure on VFR1200 series, I never did any work on them. But you did say you swapped the throttle bodies. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the VFR1200 has a TPS sensor.. TPS- thottle position…
- 2,000 RPM idle driving me nuts! 2 hours ago, BusyLittleShop The dead give away of an air leak on a Fi engine is high uncontrolled idle... on a fuel injection system *any* air that gets past the throttle bodies the map just adds the corresponding…
- 2,000 RPM idle driving me nuts! Edit: sorry, I just realized I had not stated that I have a VFR 1200. I've edited the original post too. Thanks guys. @Fritzer, I don't see a download for the 2014 VFR 1200, just for the VFR800. As far as I know, the…
- 2,000 RPM idle driving me nuts! After 115,000 miles with everything running perfectly, I stripped everything down my VFR 1200 to change the plugs and check the valve clearances. The old plugs were a perfect light-brown color and all valve clearances…
- VFR1200F Valve Inspection Thanks for your reply HispanicSlammer.
- VFR1200F Valve Inspection I'm in the middle of checking my valves. What a PITA getting the front cover off! In this thread, a few of you said your clearances were out on the exhaust valves but didn't say whether they were tight or loose. I'm…
- Ohlins Spring Rates UPDATE I finally got my shock back from Ohlins with the 1200 lb spring. It took me about 5 hours to install start to finish. I would be much quicker a 2nd time. I struggled to get the old shock out the bottom until I…

- Ohlins Spring Rates So the saga continues.... I went into Evolution Motorcycles in San Jose ( http://www.evolution-motorcycles.com/ ) on Friday to discuss fork upgrades. They have a good reputation for suspension work but I personally…
- Ohlins Spring Rates Guys, Just been on the phone with Matt from Ohlins for about 30 mins. He's a very knowledgeable & helpful guy but I'm more confused than ever! He's willing to change out my spring for a 200 or 210N/mm (1142 or 1199…
- Ohlins Spring Rates BR - Good suggestion but I think the stiffest spring Ohlins does is 1199 lbs/inch (01092-89 is the part number). By my calculations, this is approximately 17% stiffer than the stock spring. Even though it wouldn't be…
- Ohlins Spring Rates Thanks for your advice guys. I think I'll return the spring for the 1200 lbs/in one. I'll let you know what I think of the suspension when I get it installed. Graham
- Ohlins Spring Rates Guys, I've had my bike now for 18 months. I've never been happy with the suspension so decided to splurge on a rear Ohlins shock (S46HR1C1S from here http://www.indysuper...oductid=7111625 ). Before I ordered, I called…
