josh99 Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 Hi when the bike starts from cold it revs really high for about 5 seconds then runs normal. It has done it since replacing the throttle cable. Any ideas, thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ducati996 Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 IS THE THROTTLE CABLE STICKING Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sting32 Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 are you sure you ran the cable EXACTLY like the old one was? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilh Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 my Gas Gas does this. (06' 280) and ive read on here that others have this problem too. when you kick it over and the revs start rising, shake it side to side...it will settle down to idle quicker. trust me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfork Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 sounds like the slide is not bottomed in the carb and allowing more air into the engine check the cable at both ends , routing , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh99 Posted October 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 Thanks sorted now. It was the carb, it had turned slightly when we changed the throttle cable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
