ADJUSTMENTS (cont.)
Engine Idle Speed
The engine must be at normal operating tempera-
ture in order to make accurate idle speed adjust-
ments. Ten-minutes of stop-and-go riding should be
sufcient. Do not attempt to compensate for faults
in other systems by adjusting idle speed. See your
dealer for regularly scheduled adjustments and
services.
1. Warm up the engine, shift into neutral and rest
the bike securely on its side stand.
2. Connect a tachometer, following the tachometer
manufacturer’s instructions.
3. Adjust the idle speed using the throttle stop
screw (arrow). Idle speed should be 1400 rpm,
plus/minus 100 rpm.
Note: SSR pit bikes are equipped with a variety of
different carburetors depending on the models. The
photos are representative of what is on your bike.
