Throttle blocking: fix that first! Remove the grip, see if it rolls smoothly. Could be gunk built up, could be bent bars...
according to the garage, it is not the cable nor the handle, it is inside the engine
You saying the front of the engine dropped like half an inch when you removed the slider?
Exactly
If that happened I wouldn't be surprised if the lower side of the airbox, or the lower end of the air filter popped off the throttle body leaving a gap through which extra (unfiltered) air can get into the "clean" side of the air filter.
ok ill tell them to look at that which makes sense for all the issue.
-You changed the air filter and no performance issues were observed.
Yes
-You changed the exhaust and no performance issues were observed.
just a way nicer sound, I've put this exhaust: Leo Vince GP exhaust
-You removed the "sliders" (post a pic of these if you can), the engine physically shifted. High idle was observed after this change. You attempted to correct the change and the high idle was still observed.
yes but I went to a garage and they fix the high idle issue by letting less air going into the engine (not sure how they did it but it was just a setting somewhere)
"Blocking" You are saying the throttle tube itself needs to be manually forced to open and close?
just to open. Basically, when you fully open the the throttle tube and release it by opening your hand, it is hard to throttler up again.
-You said "when the engine is not running". Please tell me it's the same, engine on or off.
haven't tried to do it with the engine running, with normal riding, it never blocks.
Have a look at and take pictures of:
I'll send you a picture when I get home
I've been running the K&N air filter for 4500mi... no problem. Too much air? Nonsense.
thanks for this info, it is super helpful
Engine slipped 1 cm. I'd check cables, wire connectors to make sure nothing is loose or binding.
okok
Backfiring: probably needs ECU map to match the changed exhaust.
the guy who gave it to me has the same and does not seam to have issues..
I'll keep you posted when I have news. Hope this issue will be fix soon so I can enjoy the bike before the snow!
