Somebody settle this. which cable is the longest? F4I or 900rr? If its the RR, then which year RR?

 

RR 1997.

 

I bought one of each... and the 900rr is longer.... I put the f4i cable on a while back so I don't have it to compare side by side, but I know this one is longer.

It's the same cable for all years 900rr, the part # above...

 

ok so i gotta f4i and i was f*cking with the stock idle **** and it unscrewed completely out and i have NO idea where the f*ck it goes i cant really see or get to anything under there even after removing the tank and air box. little help or pics please? thanks

Alright so I have a 04 600rr and have it stripped down to the throttle bodies waiting to put in my second cable. It looks like the set screw is in a different position than the one shown in the pic of the f4i. I see 2 screws above my stock idle cable one is painted white im guessing these are the set screws which one should I remove.

 

i just did mine on my 04 for the second time cuase mine snapped...

where the throttle cables connect to the throttle bodies is where the set screw is you want to replace.

lookin at the front of the bike so the throttle is on your right and the clutch is on the left... now look at the where the cables connect. you want to replace the screw on the right...... you are also gonna need to cut the idle cable screw end shorter.

lucky for you i have a couple pics, hold a sec

 

in this pic you can see the end of the snapped cable... that is where you want to put your idle cable.

 

and an FYI for everyone else, the 600rr idle calbes are by far longer than the F4i's and the 900rr's......

 

Thanks for the help im going to go try to get it done today ill let ya know how it goes.

 

Well im a bit delayed, went to Honda and the 900rr cable is on back order for 10 days so I ordered a 600rr cable, will this work.

 

yes, its actually better than the 900 cable cause its longer.... its what i used in mine

 

i did the mod on an 02 f4i yesterday. i screwed a 900 rr cable in the left idle stop(looking to the front of the bike). it works and all, but the bike runs really rich now. when i rev it, the revs drop slow, it puffs out some black smoke, and it afterburns (sometimes like a ****). its also really hard to start now. what did i do wrong?

 

 

yeah thats real funny..

 

i apologize for that response, silly g-friend was playin with the computer icons. hope you solve the problem.

 

so has anybody swapped the two stock screws and everything work fine?

 

:YEAH made it work....

 

same thing with my f4i did you find out what was wrong
