Idle RPM problem in RTR 180
Hi Friends,I am one of the proud owner of RTR.I have weird situation some times.While starting the bike, it is doing in normal idle RPM like 1.2 K - 1.4 or by 1.5 K RPM.Normally, I will leave the bike in idle RPM for about 30 Sec to 1 Min for first ride..But after some KM of ride, say like after some 3 KMS, (approximatly.)after stopping the bike for a signal, I have seen that, sometimes the engine is doing less than idle RPM like close to 1 K to 1.1 K RPM or may be sometimes it is turning of automatically.This is not happening so frequently, but it happens some time.My question, after riding a few KM, the engine will be heated, so if it's idling RPM, is little high,it seems to be reasonable.But why it is falling below the Idle RPM range.May I kindly know, what may be the reason for that.Thanks....

Topic Approved.
Get your carb cleaned once... Before that, try draining a little fuel through the drainage screw on the carb, to see if it helps...---

My Logic says ... your carb's idle circuit is running too rich.
So in cold that rich mixture works like an auto choke. After warm up, mixture is becoming too rich for the engine hence engine is dying.
Try tuning the carb (fuel screw). Make the setting leaner and check.
Also check if u are running a clean air filter and spark plug or not. if needed replace both and then tune the engine accordingly.Comment

Re: Idle RPM problem in RTR 180
HI..
Is there some hesitation on higher RPM (above 5k)?
Is engine having a little cold start in morning (If yes then its normal but just a little cold start not much.)?
please check the following and reply if the problem is resolved or not.-
1. check fuel line if there are some dirt or rust particles causing partial blockage in fuel lines.
2. clean spark plus and spark plug gap it should be about 0.6 mm(Replace it every @ 10K Kms)
3. get the carburator tune finely with a good mechanic (better if you get it cleaned too).
4. clean air filter.
If the problem persist then take the carburator piston slide out and inspect it carefully if its worn or scratched. if yes then replace it and fine tune the carburator.
I hope it will help.
thankyou.Comment
