Fuel Injectors - Installation
1. Apply a thin coat of clean engine oil to top and bottom
injector O-rings.
2. See Figure 4-103. Install fuel injectors.
a. Place an O-ring on each side of injector.
b. Install both injectors (4) into throttle body manifold.
c. Press the fuel rail (1) onto the top of the injectors.
d. Secure the fuel rail to the manifold with screw (met-
ric). Tighten securely.
3. Snap the injector clips (2) over the flange on the fuel rail
outlet and into the top grove in the injector.
4. Install throttle body manifold. See
BODY AND INTAKE MANIFOLD.
Fuel Injectors - Testing
1. Remove air cleaner cover.
2. Conduct test.
a. With throttle held wide open, turn key ON for two
seconds.
b. Turn key OFF for two seconds.
c. Repeat Steps A and B five consecutive times.
Replace fuel injectors if there is any evidence of raw
fuel in throttle bottle manifold.
3. Install air cleaner cover.
INSTALLATION
If only installing throttle body, begin installation with Step 3.
1. See Figure 4-104. Install front and rear intake flanges
onto manifold with the counterbore facing out. Each
intake flange is labeled and the pieces are not inter-
changeable.
2. Place a new seal in each intake flange with the beveled
side against the counterbore.
3. See Figure 4-105. Attach both throttle cables. Add free-
play to cables if necessary.
a. With the throttle body close to the right side of the
bike but not fully installed, place idle control cable
end (1) into hole on guide (2). Wrap the cable into
the channel.
b. Place the end of the cable housing into the bracket
by sliding the cable through the slot (3). Adjust the
cable so it will not dislodge from the bracket.
c. Repeat procedure for the throttle control cable.
d. Verify that the cables are seated in the channels on
the guide. Check that the cable ends are positioned
in the bosses on the cable bracket.
e. Install screw and throttle cable brackets to throttle
cables.
f. Verify operation by turning throttle grip and observ-
ing the cable action and throttle valve movement.
