I have all the plastic off my bike but I am unable to locate the idle adjustment screw.
Is there one or is it controlled by the ECU?

Being EFI and not a carbureted bike I would not expect there to be idle adjustment. This is generally controlled by the ECU and is adjusted by re-flashing.
Just curious, were you wanting to increase or decrease it?
Going for that 'lumpy cam' sound perhaps? I like a low idle sound too.I wanted to lower it a bit. On my CBR1000RR there was an idle adjustment knob and that bike was fuel injected as well.
There is a throttle body stop screw with a lock nut but it looks like a pain to get at an adjust.
No but I would imagine if you were flashing your ECU there would be a box where you could change that value.anyone ever find a way to adjust idle?
ah yeah i could see that i just wanted an easy way to increase idle for practicing slower wheelies... seems to be a flash is the only way :crying:I have to agree with KiwiRider. IMHO, Arbitrary turns of a screwdriver and listening for a sweet spot in the idle tone are bound to come to no good end when working on EFI and ECU controlled bikes. At least for me. My hands no longer work well and I can't hear anything but a constant high pitched ringing. For years, I got away with such foolishness diddling away on the Bing Carbs on my '83 BMW. But, today's bikes are another story. So, for the biggest part, my diddling days are over. :crying:
Nah nothing as flash as that it appears. Hard to see properly with the side covers on holding a pen light though.attached a pic, it's on the left side of bike hanging below throttle bodies
