where could it be.......

where the heck is the idle screw on the 06 450r ? book says left side but the isnt crap there not on the other side either the book shows like a thumb screw..... the deal is it keeps trying to die in the shut down area of the drag strip. then it dont want to start for a bit, there is a adjustment on the handle bars (like a clutch/brake adjustment) but that would be just like touching the thumb throtle and it wont start at all if you do that. if im a retard just tell me but also tell me where the screw is :confused:

right side just about 3" above the pipe.

on the fcr i believe it should be a screw you need to turn

maybe your jetting is off? or you could be getting it really hot and it just doesnt want to fire :confused:

its a plastic knob just like on the 05's mounted to the frame tube under the gas tank on the right side. just bump up the idle and youll be good.
