hi just wiondering what the idle speed for an rxs 100 is supiosed to be?

finaly got round to fiering it up after changing the head.

i will add that i did not know if the 2 stroke oil pump worked so i made a 25% premixed oil/fule just to be on the safe side..

any way the pump works so now i have a lot of smoke but thats to be expected with the amount of oil in the fule.

any way..

i tried to set the idle rpm at the little 1 on the clock. but it stalls at 1 unless i give it some revs.

it idles fine at about 1.5 though

so thought id come check the recomended idle rpm..

the down pipe seems to have a hole in it if that will affect it so i will be fixing that. and seems like i have a lot of re wiering to do for the indecators and tail light excetera.

any way i was just checking that i could make it run with a new head on there which seems to have fixed the compression issues. i have a spare carb on stand by.

once i get the engine running reasonably well i will the strip it down and re build it with the new seals bearings and gaskets that i have for it.

so umm idle rpm please any one know?

RXS100 1983 - 1997 Idle rpm = 1350 - 1450 rpm.

ok so that explains why it works at about 1.5 but not at 1

thanks sounds like its almost perfect then.
