Re: '92 907ie ... high idle when warm

Hi , Just after writing the last post , I had the rad cap in my hand and I was able to completely unscrew the check valve assembly from the cap . It would seem that I could use the cap as-is (without the check valve ) and it would accomplish the same thing as the 'cut the slot' approach . If correct...

Re: '92 907ie ... high idle when warm

Ding Ding ... we have a winner !! The upper hose was pressing against both the high idle screw and also the nut on the end of the throttle shaft . I made a little radiused sheetmetal piece that allowed me to pull the hose out of the way using some zip ties . Works great !! Great job guys ... huge th...

Re: '92 907ie ... high idle when warm

A long time indeed . Shame shame . I did a very thorough service which included the 'radiator filler neck CBR 600 re-do' mod . I don't believe that I have an air pocket . The rad shows full when cold and the tank shows low when cold and about 1/2 when warm . All cables are as they should be . I keep...

'92 907ie ... high idle when warm

Hello , My recently 'awoken' 907 is doing great and over all I am more than pleased . One thing is a bit baffling however --- at cold start-up she will fast idle at about 1,400 until the "choke" is removed , then it drops to about 1,150 and all is well . When the bike is being ridden norma...

Re: Fuel pump/lines/filter

Thank you . I had a new BMW filter and am planning to use it . I have a new 'strainer basket' , that lives at the bottom of the pump and a fuel sender/float(mine is about 1/2 full of fuel) coming from Stein Dinse . With those parts , and the new pump from Bevel Steve , I should be good . However ......

Re: Fuel pump/lines/filter

Hello and Thank you , I confirmed that I had power to the connector under the tank before I tore into it . Just judging by the condition of the hoses alone , I am glad to get a chance to 'make new' again . Now if my hands were a bit smaller !! The filter seems pretty generic , it fact it appears ide...
