    Hi guys, I just got this as my first bike a few months ago its a 2004 and it works great for the most part but has a couple problems that caused it to not pass inspection. The main problem is that the idle is set to be around 1300-1500 RPMs but will often shoot up around 4000 RPM and take up to...

    I recently fell off my bike, it's a 2009 250 (not sure if it's an r) and am just now getting around to fixing it. When I try to turn it on I have to hold the start button for a few seconds until it gets to a comfortable idle or else it just shuts off. Under full choke it still idles very low and...

    Okay, so I'm new here and having an idle issue with my 2000 Ninja 250. From what I was told, the bike sat up for a while bedited I got it. It did not run, but I got it for an absolute steal at $300 and ended up getting it running for under $100 in addition. The bike has a little over 10,000...

    Hey guys. Last week my ninja 250 stopped accelerating and eventually died. Basically, the bike will not idle. I can get it to run by hitting the ignition and pulling the throttle; however, ignition alone won't turn over the engine. I attached a video to show whats going on. I though someone may...

    Hi I'm brand new to these forums; I bought my 09 250r about a month ago with 15,500 mi. I began noticing the bike's RPMs fluctuating about 250 RPM at idle (the needle is not steady, the engine kinda lobes). When I've been running it for 10 mins or so its right around 1250 - 2000 rpms at idle...

    mine idles around 1300rpms between 1k-1.5k rpms is normal. So I would adjust it if it doesn't go back to normal. Again, this is idling speed when the bike is fully warm

    Hello all. I have read many posts re: no idle conditions and high idles at 3-4k, and many replies as to what "may" be the problems. But nobody seems to post any results. I have had carbs off twice, clean the living crap out of them, tried diff idle jet settings...... still no results. I can...

    Hi, I am very new to all of this and this is my first bike. I have a 2009 Ninja 250r and when I was learning some a few months back before winterizing my bike my buddy turned up my idle rpm's so I wouldn't stall as often since I was learning. After letting my bike run for a bit today I tried...

    Alright, I'm desperate for help at this point, as I'm simply running out of ideas. I'll start from the beginning, and give a TL;DR at the end. April 2012. I, after riding dirtbikes for a few months, am passively considering buying a street bike. I buy a 94 EX250 on CL for 900 bucks, was told...

    Ok, so lately on a cold start, i pull the choke to get the idle up and let the motor warm up… as the motor revs higher and higher, i let off on the choke a bit till the choke is closed and the idle is calm at 1k rpm… I then grab the throttle and rev it up to about 5-7k rpm and let go… the rpm's...
