Evening. I've been running a 96 RS for a few months and i'm slowly bringing the servicing up to date. I find it has a bit too much surging going on. A lot more than any of the 1100s's I've owned. So far I've tended to the basics, ie tappets, plugs, cleaned the bodies and butterflies. Reset the throttle pot to about 10mv at zero throttle then idle screw turned in til about 380mv is achieved. this gave a decent idle of 10-1100rpm once bodies were synced.
It does'nt feel smooth at low speeds and I feel rather vulnerable on busy small roundabouts.
So, tonight I noticed that it doesn't have an O2 sensor, nor does it have a CCP installed. Although it does have a CAT. And, it also has a CO pot fitted on the left side of the frame. I'm really surprised that is has a surging issue considering there's no closed loop control going on.
Can anyone offer any points to check please. I'm not beat yet and I would love to fall in love with the bike before I loose heart with it.
Cheers
John
