Idle RPM
« on: June 02, 2026, 07:38:31 PM »
   Finally got my scoot out for a ride today. Haven't paid much attention, but today I noticed that it idles about 2000 RPM. Is that the normal idle? If this is higher than normal, could it be because of the Dr. Pulley 11.5 gr sliders I have instead of the stock 13gr rollers? Where should I reset the idle if necessary?

Pretty sure your scoot is EFI, no carb - it uses an electronic fuel management system and the idle is factory set.
Stock idle speed is probably @1800 +/- 100 RPM like my EFI'd LIKE200i.
I'm pretty sure the idle speed is not affected by the roller weights.
Maybe she just needs an Eye-Talian Tune Up!
Ride it a bit more at speed and see what happens!

And, I'm feeling a little peculiar.
