Hi, I have a '95 R1100R, and recently the speedo has stopped working. I changed the cable (the old one wasn't broken), but it still doesnt work..can anyone help??? Also it srunning at about 1500-1700 rpm at idle...does anyone know how I can reduce the revs at idle, or is normal idle around the 1500 rpm mark ? Thanks for any help...
Remove the drive gear assembly from the front wheel. The nylon gear in there has
been known to strip. Item #5 here: http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?model=0407&mospid=47947&btnr=62_0261&hg=62&fg=05 You can turn both idle air screws IN to lower the idle but you should probably have a TwinMax or Carb Stix attached to balance the two throttle bodies when you do it.
