Hello all, 1997 TL 1000S MODs: PCV Power Commander, RS-3 Yoshimura exhaust I very recently set out to adjust my valves as it was time. The bike has a very bad acceleration, which would bog with any extra throttle applied. It also did not like to idle and would frequently die at stop lights...

as the title says... the bike starts fine and idles great, until the temp hits about 120-133. Then all hell breaks loose. Motor starts coughing, idle drops, idle goes normal, idle drops, and then it dies. I'm thinking a good sync and TPS adjustment may do the trick, any one else have any...

He went off round a left hander, he is ok, back and shoulder injurys. bike totaled!! least he is ok.:puke, shat myself saw it happen in my mirrors:banghead gota make the call to mum now, ride safe people.

I recently bought a 01 TLR from a friend. The first thing i did was remove the emission junk and put cover plates on the exhaust holes. I finally had a chance to take it out for a ride today and it didnt run smoothly at all. The engine felt like it was surging in and out and the exhaust...

Is it normal for a TLS to ride like a skate board going down a rocky road. I have done the rotory damper mod and it still rides very rough. Is a bitubo heaps more comfy to ride on?:O

as long as frame forks wheels are straight i'm not bothered how rough she is. :pirate
