    Here is an interesting issue.
    I went to set my idle knob to the factory setting and work from there since I didn't like how the bike was idling and popping when rolling at low speed.

    Using the manual I made sure that the bike was warmed up, then with the knob pushed in I spun the knob counterclockwise (left) until it stopped. Interestingly enough it only went four "clicks" before not being able to turn it anymore. (approx. 3/4 of a full turn)

    I thought this was interesting since the manual call for the knob to spin 34 clicks to be normal idle setting. So, I adjusted out to 34 clicks and the bike wouldn't even start. I went between dead stop zero to 8 clicks clockwise and the bike seems run the same. ( I returned the knob to 4 after tinkering) which is where it runs and where the previous owner had it set.

    :cool: I have the Leo Vince tune put on by zipty racing, no cat, FMF and (I did just find the ORANGE AIR FLUTE in place, although the previous owner told me it had been removed.):rolleyes:

    I'm assuming I'm lean given the popping, high idle (by ear) and non-ability to adjust the idle knob. So Given my symptoms, It seems like I'm getting too much air probably between the adjustment knob and the head. Maybe that boot that holds the FI is torn, or something like that.

    Upon further inspection the air flute is opened up and unrestricted. So that can be taken off the list. However all the previous issues remain.

    I ordered a breakout harness for the TPS so that I can check or set the throttle position sensor. I would really like to get the power commander V and wideband auto tune set up on this 2013 310r, might have to give zipty a call next pay.

    you indicate you turned the knob counterclockwise. the fully closed position would be clockwise until it stops.

    not sure but I found many typos in the manuals for my 2012te310/ Maybe they meant 3 to 4 clicks? Cross check another manual to see what it says. Meaning checkout the user manual & the workshop manual.

    IIRC (and I probably don't) they DO mean 34 clicks out... but they have the CW/CCW thing messed up. I have found many typos, errors, unit conversions, and Italian-to-non-technical-english problems with the manual.

    turn it 4 clicks back to where it was and start all over. the idle is pretty high normally.

    Kind of like how the manual calls a screwdriver a wrench. The manuals are kind of goofy on their translation.

    ...or calling a throttle body a "carburetor"

    Solved:
    310r runs great!

    The official manual for setting the idle was translated from Italian wrong! It called for ccw instead of clockwise, lol. Runs like a champ now thanks to you cafe hucafe members coming through with the corrections to the manual!

    Not a single pop on deceleration and a normal sounding idle.
