  4. DL1000 from 2002-2012
    Hello, I have an 06 1000. My idle is set at 1,300 RPMs and stays there until I start riding. After I start riding, and come to a stop, clutch pulled in, it idles at 2,500 RPMs. If I let out the clutch a little, as if to take off and then pull it back in, it goes back down to 1,300 RPMs. I've...

    Greetings Stromtroopers, Thank you for being such a great help on this forum. I recently bought my '06 Wee, and depending on the day, it exhibits these symptoms: Low idle & stall: usually a day after filling the tank (I've been through 2 full tanks and experienced this). I have to constantly...

  7. DL650 and DL650A - 2004 to 2011
    After sitting for a year and a half, I decided to get my 06 Wee going again. Layoff was due to a bad hip, got a new one in March. When I parked the bike in an unheated garage, I changed oil and filter, lubed the chain and the usual stuff, and filled the tank with fresh gas and a liberal dose...
  8. Maintenance, Tech and Products.
    Hello all! I've been riding my 2016 DL650 for a little over a year now and I've clocked 5000 miles [sorry folks, didn't have gloves warm enough in the depths of winter and being able to handle a clutch seems important]. ;) I had the 600 mile maintenance and changed my oil/filter for the first...

  13. DL650 and DL650A - 2004 to 2011
    So, took the '04 wee to the mechanic; one of the coils died. The mechanic futzed around with a few things before they found the right one to fix, for better and worse. One thing that's been changed is the idle. So what's the correct idle speed for a Wee? I think it was around 1100, now it's...
