high idle

j's87vfr · 06-06-2007, 08:32 AM

Hello Everyone,
This morning i noticed something weird while starting my 00 vfr. It sounded as if it was idling differently than the other days. When i got to work this morning my bike was idling between 500-900rpm higher. It usually idles around 1500rpm. Anybody know what might be going on with my bike.

Thanks

Possibly the fast idle wax unit has died.

How much does something like that cost? Can a novice replace the old one?

Be sure to check for a vacuum leak.
