Okay, gone back few pages....

748..... when the bike is ticking over warm, it cuts out, well more splutter splutter............. How do i change the idle speed. On all my other bikes, was a simple tweek of the adjuster. But i can't find one :(

That be the idle speed advance.... thought this would be for starting from cold?? This used when engine is warm and ticking over, say at traffic lights?

The idle speed is controlled by a small screw on the front throttle body.
Follow the throttle cable down to the linkage and you'll see the stop screw. It has a hex head 7 or 8mm.
