the cables must be routed properly and tensioned according to the manual but yes I'm sure if it was messed up bad enough it could shut it down to prevent damage. Getting any codes?

 

No codes are showing on the instruments. I tried to switch the cables - no help.

It just cuts out as soon as I turn the throttle. Weird.

 

just because the cables are attached doesn't mean they are adjusted properly. They could be way outta wack. Do you have a manual that explains how too adjust them? Might sound simple but is your gas turned on under the tank. Maybe the shop turned it off before they removed the tank and forgot to turn it back on? Does your fuel pump prime when you turn the key on?

 

the only reason a code would be throw is if there was an sensor/servo motor issue. Take the cover off the exup (on the header) put 12volt to the servo motor for less than 1 second to see if it operates..Thats what the factory manual states.

 

Servo motor works. I had the tank off and turned on the ignition.

The bike starts, so it's getting fuel, and I double checked the gas lines. I took off the header and checked the exup valve, it turns as it should.

I think the trouble might be somewhere else. It just dies when I turn the gas, and it will only start with the choke.

It's probably some wire that I may have crimped putting her back together.

Trouble shooting continues.

Thanks for the suggestions!

Idle speed to low? (ie. below 1k), throttle cables loose? (not adjusted properly)

two simple ones I can think of.

 

Check to make sure all your vacum lines are on properly. A disconnected or leaky vacuum line would do that .

 

I found the problem.

It was the pilot needles. The carbs were recently rebuilt, and then the bike was left sitting for 3 weeks before riding again. so the pilots needed adjusting.

Thanks for the help!

 

My idle stay high at 3k RPM on my 02 R1. It does not kick donw until the bike reaches 220 degrees and fans turn on then it is normal. I did replce the header. How do you adjust the cables. Is there a choke cable that isnt kicked down?

 

On the 01 R1 there is a throttle advance screw located on the left side below the carbs. you can change you idle speed by turning the screw.

Did you check you choke? choke cable? a rich mixture would cause your idle to advance, but it might fowl your plugs quickly too if it's the choke

How do the exup cables hook up. I took out an aftermarket full yoshi system from an 01 R1 and need to install stock headers and a slipon. Thanks
