Refer to the Safety Precautions on page 67.
The engine must be at normal operating
temperature for accurate idle speed adjustment.
Ten minutes of stop-and-go riding is sufficient.
Do not attempt to compensate for faults in
other systems by adjusting idle speed. See your
authorized Honda dealer for regularly
scheduled carburetor adjustments.
1. Warm up the engine, shift to neutral and
place the motorcycle on its stand.
2. Adjust idle speed with the throttle stop
screw (1).
Idle speed (in neutral):
1,100 +/- 100 rpm
1,200 +/- 100 rpm ... California only
