grouse Posted December 14, 2004 Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 Is the new mont really supposed to idle at 1800 rpm,the only one I have heard sounds very fast on idle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigel dabster Posted December 14, 2004 Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 Not sure how true that is as when I rode one it wasn't 1800rpm or above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
windlestone Posted December 14, 2004 Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 The one i rode didn't appear to tick over any faster than a Gas Gas Pro 05 i was trying at the same time Kick starting is a bit different other than that it was great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
munch Posted December 14, 2004 Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 the idlespeed is 1800rpm+-100 honda says what do they know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marky boy Posted December 15, 2004 Report Share Posted December 15, 2004 Thats is what they say but i have mine set no higher than 'normal' certainly not 1800 ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grouse Posted December 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 Thats interesting cause the bike came from the dealer set up to idle at 1800 rpm,the guy who had bought it was concerned at the idle speed and the fact that the front pipe was glowing red after short time on idle. But if Honda say this is the correct idle speed what do you do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
