I allowed my boet to use my bike for an hour the other day and when he returned it, it refused to idle.

After cursing him for always f&*#&@g up my bikes, I started to look for the problem.

I eventually found the problem !! I lost a little "stopper" on the butterfly cam (see Pic).

I just put a small 5mm bolt with a nylock nut through the hole, adjusted the idle screw and all is well again  :thumleft:
