hi vfr'ers iv go a vfr800 1998 an having probs with choke not closing it shutting at 3000rpm's . cables ok anybody any thoughts cheers mick from leeds
A 1998 VFR800 would be fuel injected. I don't own one, but I'd doubt it has a mechanical choke. None of the VFRs, even carburated, had a mechanical choke. They had a mechanical enrichment circuit that ran off a cable and plunger. regardless... more information would be needed. Has this bike ever ran properly for you or is it a recent purchase that has had the problem since you've owned it? If it recently developed this problem, have you done anything to the bike lately? Laid it down, tune up etc... Does the idle ever come down off 3000rpm? Like after riding and it warms up?
hi had bike over 4years n no probs with it this has only started in last 3 weeks i can start bike with choke and reduce as n when warmed up but when shut choke off it idles at 3000rpm . i have move tank n top of air box to see were it is when move a cam back it idles ok but stuck again when moved choke lever . and cant get bottom part of airbox off to has a better look . any ideas were i can get a diagram not had much luck , cheers for reply mick
