Search on probolt for button inserts. I have them & are very neat. Every colour & material under the sun is available.


I did btw, know what you meant by ' choke'

I just found them on AJSutton site - they want over £7 for one!

£4 of that is postage and packing - WTF?! A first class stamp is less than a pound!

You don't know what size they are do you? Pro bolt seem to have loads of all different sizes  :think

Are you sure about the choke comment willyboy . Some replies are by the oldschool ya knows 


As to the fast idle, it isn't controlled by the electronics alone. The ecu obviously operates the injectors ( using tps v rpm ) but the fast idle is controlled by the thermowax unit. When hot, above about 65*C on mine (btw it can be adjusted), it's plunger is pushed against the throttle linkage meaning only the throttle twistgrip has any effect on rpm. However, when cold the thermowax's plunger is raised and allows an air passage into the throttle bodies thus raising the rpm's. The plunger is operated by heat expansion of the wax which is heated by the coolant.

Thats exactly what i meant, as there is no choke it is in the fast idle mode for the cold engine
