'03 rx1 noise

[yamatyb9]

I've been getting a vibration kinda noise coming from the clutch's I'm assuming.. This is at idle, when it's higher rpm it's gone. I know the primary is a little loose on the Rx1, hopefully it should be this way, just kind of annoying. Any helps appreciated. Thanks

Very common.

Turn the idle up to 1600 and the rattle goes away. its the gear reduction in the motor, not the clutch

OK that's what I did, just turned the idle up. Just wanted to make sure that's all it was. Thanks alot !

Hi Guys,

I have the same problem just bought a used RX1. New to this sport so how do I adjust the rpm's?
Cheers Rob

There is an adjustment Phillips head screw between the 2 middle carbs. Clockwise gives less and counter clockwise gives you more. You gotta look for it, it doesnt stick right out.

Be careful though, adjust it too much and you will upset TORS. If you sped it up and your sled is popping and backfiring like crazy, you went too far.

And make sure you're not adjusting on the carb sync adjustment screws, that would wack the Whole carb performance big time.
