Just got it firing!
Hi all, I m trying to get my head around why this bikes throttle linkage is limiting the opening of the butterflies in the throttle bodies. There's at least 30degrees of rotation left before the butterfly reaches the positive stop cast into the throttle body. The linkage is the limiting factor and specifically, the fast idle cam and adjuster both contact the link arms and prevent any further rotation. The TPS is set to trigger the full throttle signal at the same point at which the linkage binds on itself. It appears to have been set at the factory to significantly limit full throttle.
Has anyone set one of these up so they get full throttle opening and if so can the TPS be reset to true full throttle opening and still achieve the recommended voltage at idle?
My bike is a standard 03 hydro with the only modification being to the exhaust H-pipe which has been replace with an after market one with provision for the original LAMDA sensor to be retained.
It has been suggested that this is simply the factory way of limiting the power output on this model.
I'm not satisfied with the set up and will be experimenting with removing the fast idle cam on the throttle linkage to clear the obstruction and adjusting the TPS so full throttle is at least achieving 70-80 degrees from fully closed.
I'd like to hear from anyone else who has figured out what happens when you actually achieve full throttle opening and tuned their fuel system/TPS to match.
