Honda CBF125 stalling when idle

sp0nge86 · 3 Jul 2014 at 11:14

Hey guys, not sure if this is the right place to post this kind of thing but does anyone have any idea why my bike is doing this?

(bear in mind my phone's microphone is made of potatoes and the engine actually sounds totally fine bar the 'ticking' noise and the drop in revs/stall)

Any advice from some experienced bikers would be much appreciated - this is my first bike and only bought it a fortnight ago :3

Cheers!

theres an idle adjustment nob usually on the left side of the engine,you can turn it and you'll hear the engine revs rise

give it a slight turn,in summer when its hot it usually needs an adjustment

Adjust idle, as said.

as above there will be a screw thumb sized you turn that to get the idle up but only do it when the bike is off choke.
