so how do ya know if the servo motor is gone?it still rotates when the ignition is switched on...also if i just plug in a servo buddy will this cure the prob??

If the servo doesn't Reach a limit it can set a code off.

Robracer explained to me how to do it in Red Daves old 6. I put a flat length of alloy about 10cm long and put it onto the top of the servo, then when it spun it hit the subframe and stopped, then went back the other way till the other end hut the subframe and all was good.
Maybe rob can take a pic if he still has the same setup on his bike?

Yep just checked & my one is farked, not moving at all....... will have to get a servo buddy now

Here is the current set up:

oh, not the subframe, just the plastic block.

Servo buddy is about $100?

C'mon Wasabi now is the time to step up

Funny how the mind works
When I hit the HUT, I automatically switched to a kiwi accent

FI light is meant to flash when bike is off.

aaaahhh!thats ok thanks,i never really noticed it flashing before!anyway does it matter if the exhaust butterfly valve is constantly open??

you might loose a little back pressure down low and at smaller throttle openings, but no biggie.
