Tps adjustment
« on: June 10, 2016, 14:16:35 »
I checked my tps via the "dealer mode" function today.... the result was that the bar moved up at 2900 rpm!

I have moved it (too far first and the bike cut out) so it moves around 1800 rpm, I've not ridden it yet but I took a video of it moving see below..

That's pretty much perfect for a Vee.
Pat- 2007 DL650A was ridden to all 48 contiguous states. 2012 DL650A outlasted me.
Nicknames I use to lessen typing, Vee = 2002-2012 (K2-L2) DL1000s. Veek=2014+ (L4+) DL1000s. Wee = 2004-2011 (K4-L1) DL650s. Glee = 2012+ (L2+) DL650s

I'll be able to tell on my way to work in the morning if it's made any difference!

Well.....

I fitted a smart TRE yesterday too,

And wow!!! It's bonkers!!!
The throttle response is almost perfect now, and the wall of torque that the bike delivers is fantastic,
I'm genuinely pleased with the result.

Also as I found it difficult to make out some of the details in other guides I scribbled some points for the process.... (k2 model) don't know if they're slightly different for later models as I have no experience with them.


First step is to remove the seat and put your bike into "dealer mode" there will be c00 on the dash display with a - next to it.

Start and run it till the temp shows 3 bars....

Very slowly twist the throttle keeping a close eye on the revs and the - next to the c00,
The bar should skip up a notch somewhere between 1600 and 1900 rpm.

If it does you're done... if not, the tps can be reached (on my k2) from the left of the bike directly level with the plastic grille at the bottom of the fairing panel, I removed the black side panel too but don't remember if it was critical to the job.

I had to gently move the rad hose down with a long screwdriver to be able to see one screw and move the wiring loom up a little to reach the other screw.

Loosen both T25 security torx bits (I used a ratchet with a long extension to reach it) and gently nudge the tps (I think clockwise) a tiny amount and check the dash display again raising the rpm till the - moves up.
If the bike cuts out or the bar has moved down then tweak the tps back the other way.

If it's close to the specified numbers then very gently tighten the screws down equally so the tps won't move position by accident.

If not then tweak some more and check again.

Once set replace the black side panel and take the bike out of dealer mode.

 Sit back and revel in the glory of you adjusting your own tps!
