wierd idle

[jim-in-so-ore]

I had my bike sound checked here awhile back and I couldn't make the bike stay at a steady RPM no matter how tight I held the loud handle. I would hold it steady and then the RPMs would drop off. WHATS WRONG?

Thanx, Jim

Have you disconnected your TPS yet? That seemed to fix the problem for me (mostly).

[jim-in-so-ore]

No the TPS is still connected.

My bike surges at any highway speed where I try to keep an even throttle too. My WR400 did this also but when I disconnected the grey wire it was gone. I disconnected the grey wire on this bike over a year ago and it still surges. I think that the two problims are connected. ? Any other ideas?

Well guys, last evening after I got home from work I disconnected my TPS. This being National Ride To Work Day, I rode my WR450 to work. After it cleaned out from having the choke on too long, it does NOT seem to have the surge anymore. THANX GUYS!!!!!!!! ? I haven't tried to see if the Idle is steady yet, just haven't checked.
