Any advice please, my 1999 mille cuts out on tick over, it has a power commander fitted as well as an acro exhaust system, the bike runs fine apart from the tick over problem, its heading towards summer and i want it spot on for this season.

Cheers in advance jjf
 
How low do you have your tick over set? it maybe that it just needs raising a little.

when was the last time the throttle bodies and co levels were set as well?

Thanks for the reply, to be honest I've had the bike 10years and never done it, I've never adjusted the tick over neither as the bikes always been very reliable, thanks again much appreciated

Hi Red, just wondering how often they need to be balanced. No Idea when mine we last done, I only got it last year its and 03 but not done many miles. 7900 when I got it 9700 now. According to the old MOT's it had only done 300 miles in the 2 years prior to me getting it.
Are the throttle body checks milage or time related?

think i've had mine done nearly every 2500 miles...if Griff is having a service day i get it done then co level's and tb set can make such a difference....some go out of adjustment more than others but ii have seen people come back after having it done and saying its a completely different bike to ride
