Thanks - and do tell your husband his failure has
not gone unnoticed, but fortunately? entitles him to automatic memebership
in our group!

adjustment
It's a special tool, I think best would be to ask a Kawasaki
Dealer or mechanic and the standard he is not 100% sure about it either. I
would call up a Kawasaki mechanic and ask for advice on the
standard.

Good shot at it, Anita!??? And
thank your husband for us.? But...? Just to forestall the
thousands of other people who will (I hope) display their ignorance by
asking the same thing...??
And to put your husband on the hot seat, which
is part of the fun? of our group (I've been there, believe me)
What's a throttle sensor setting adapter??
and what is standard?

Re: [W650riders] throttle sensor adjustment
This is the info I got from my husband.
Connect the
throttle sensor setting adapter between the sensor wire
connectors.
start engine
operate engine at idle
speed
loosen sensor mounting screws
adjust sensor mounting
position to set the sensor output voltage to standard and tighten the
mounting screws.
He actually only adjusted my throttle not the
sensor.

I have found that my bike's acceleration at full throttle at,say,
3,500-
4,000 rpm, is underwhelming in terms of an increase over 3/4
throttle.
I'm beginning to suspect that the throttle position
sensor, which does
not provide full advance of 35 degrees until
5,000,is too conservative.
Happily, the throttle sensor is
adjustable. Naturally, one does not
want to go to far with this as
it may provoke "knock." Does any have
any experience adjusting this
thing for a better advance curve?
