That's a great price.
How's it running now?.
Re: running lumpy - darrenc - 25-01-17
Firing on all four cylinders now, I just need to get used to a screaming 600 again, I keep expecting it to pull me away in any gear like my bandit 1250 did just to be kangarood around a bit haha, engine sounds normal again and it pulls good, all in all I'm happy, the throttle response still isn't as crisp as I would like though, when I compare it back to when I had a hornet 600 the throttle was very responsive and crisp on that. Should o check the tps again now the carbs have been cleaned and balanced and I have new plugs in?
Re: running lumpy - daviee - 25-01-17
may as well check it it dont take long and easy to adjust mine is very crisp off the throttle and pulls like a train
Re: running lumpy - darrenc - 28-01-17
OK so checked tps today, started at 5000 then went up to 10000. So I turned ignition off and back on and unplugged and plugged in the tps again and now it says 10000 no matter how much I adjust I can't get it to 5000. Any suggestions? Not only that but bike seems to be running like shit again. I'm getting truly fucked of with it now to be honest.

Have you seen this vid, you only need to follow the TPS setup. Hope it helps.

Re: running lumpy - darrenc - 28-01-17
Yep tried all that. Do I need to maybe go for a long ride then try again? Or maybe disconnect battery for a while and then connect and try again?
Re: running lumpy - bandit - 28-01-17
Just added a link to the bottom of my previous post which is in text, scroll up to Andrews post follow 2-6, did the bike run o.k before you touched the TPS,taking the bike for a run won't make any difference,check also your idle speed is around 1250rpm.
Re: running lumpy - darrenc - 28-01-17
My idle speed is probably just under 1000 guessing I need to adjust that then as well before I check the tps again.
Re: running lumpy - darrenc - 28-01-17
Been for a run out, bikes OK, tps still showing 10000 and won't budge so it can suck a bag of dicks as the bike seems to run ok.
Re: running lumpy - Fazer99 - 31-01-17
After Reading this thread I noticed that No:3 cylinder was not firing (hence my enquirey about carb cleaning prices) well after some investigation for cheaper fixes I found this product 'Wynn's Air intake & Carburettor Cleaner'. I gave it a good blast in the intake of the carbs and shazzam as if like magic I'm firing on all 4 again.
If anyone is interested I got it from Euro Car Parts for about £3 something for a 500ml can otherwise it's in Halfords for about £7, you probably can get it cheaper somewhere online.

You just take the air filter out start up bike and blast it straight through airbox?

Correct, give it a good blast just on tickover then give it a blast with the revvs at about 2k to 3k then just on tickover again, turn it off and let it settle for about 30mins to an hour then fire the bitch up again. Thats what I did and it seemed to work
Just go careful that you don't get it on any paintwork as it will eat through it like acid
