Massive revving problems Atomik RS 125

[steven1884]

Hey guys

Need some help. I have managed to get the bike started but now when i kick it over it revs really really high. I think it may be the idle screw but can't find it.

Does anyone know where it is or have any links to diagrams?

Also if this is not the problem what can it be?

Cheers

mate have you checked to see if there is any free play in the throttle.
and also is it only reving high when the choke is out...
if you can post some picture of your bike, close ups of your carb and where the throttle cable goes because also if the cable is located in the wrong spot it can make the cable stick and the engine ends up reving high...
1 other thing that comes to mind is that if the throttle slide in the carb is installed wrong it can hold the revs really high.

Take off the airfilter and look at slide and see if its stuck half way up or is all the way down. If its not then try lowering the idle, the idle screw is on the back of the carb, get a screwdriver, go around the other side of the bike, put it over the exhaust pipe (be carfull not to burn your hand!) and onto the idle screw.
