Hey guys, yesterday I cleaned my jets out and figured today i would try to set the idle. Its an 07' RM 250 with a keihin carb (tps)... It says idle screw on the choke, but I heard that was for choked idle only and the larger black screw was the main idle. Either way I tried both, and they seem do to nothing!
Whats the proper way to set up the bike to idle? :cool:

On some older RM's the idle screw WAS the choke knob (choke: up/down & turn a # of clicks for idle adjust)
On your '07 they should be seperate :cool: , the black plastic screw w/ spring being your adjustment.
If no luck, I'd look at the pilot again.

ps... Is your air screw (small screw to the right of idle screw) at approx 1 & 1/2 turns out from seated?

I'll have to check the air screw, I adjusted the rear suspension rebound last night and when I went in the garage today all the oil had leaked out!
