06 Predator Idle problems

[warthoga5]

So I have taken my Predator out a few times and it idels all over the place. Sometimes it is so low it dies, other times it is so high it sounds like I am on the throttle. I have noticed that the bike will react to moving the throttle cable around, it is kind of weird. I have adjusted the pilot screw, the idle speed knob, the throttle cable, nothing seems to fix it. I had it idling great the other day, then when I rode it yesturday the idle went really high again. I have ordered a motion pro twist throttle kit to try that, but does anyone have any other suggestions, I am running out of ideas.

Check to see if your throttle cable is free moving and no kinks. Move your handle bars around when it's ideling, and if it changes, your cable is the issue.

Yeah, when I pulled the cover off the adjustment part of the cable to try and adjust it a little there, I would get it idling fine, but when I moved it back further into the bike, it would start to rev really high on it's own. But it is free moving with no kinks. Hopefully the twist throttle will fix it.

How is the choke cable?

[warthoga5]

Never saw anything wrong with it and the choke seems to work just fine.

My guess is you have a sticky throttle cable. When was the last time it was lubed?

[warthoga5]

When I got the quad, so less than a month ago with two rides since.
