Just wondering if someone can tell me what the proper idle speed rpm should be? I have an XV250 and I think that its idling way too low - and I noticed that intermittently (when cold etc) it idles ok without stalling, with full choke, takes way longer than it should to get to the point where I can go to no choke, and if I touch the throttle at all (in either neutral or 1st) it stalls. I tried fuel on prime (the bike was sitting for a couple weeks while I was away) made no difference. A friend of mine who is a small engine mech, adjusted the idle screw a bit higher and with a handheld serometer (sp) it is now set at 1100 rpm and sounds much better idling, and seems to have fixed the issue with the throttle / stalling. I cant find the correct idle speed rpm online and its not listed in the owners manual, but I doubt it is supposed to be below 1000 rpm and thats where it was until we adjusted it higher. I would like to know the correct rpm though if anyone can tell me.... Thanks
Wanda
