Thanks for doing your video. I'm currently having a problem with my rf600. Gets to around 4000rpm then fuel starvation kicks in. I've tried a couple of pumps and same problem. Carbs are in great condition after rebuilding them. Sadly I haven't been able to get a manual . But now I know the cdi sends pulses. I think that might be my next check. I've got 2 rf600's so I will swap them. It's my first bike with a fuel pump. I did actualy strip the pump and all was ok. I thought the diaphragm had torn or something. Cheers. Ade
It might be worth posting your problem on the RF forum. I got a pdf service manual for my 900 on there. It might be an ignition advance problem if it's 4000rpm. mine didn't have a restriction on revs with faulty pump it just stopped running after a few minutes and the carb bowls ran dry.
@@Toms_Short_Movies I'm on the rf owners site. I will ask there for one. Don't know why haynes never made a manual for it though. If I get time I will swap the cdi over today. I will let you know how it goes. Thanks again. Ade
Hopefully they can help you on there. Worth doing a checklist to work out the fault. Does it stop at 4k in neutral, perhaps leave it a day for the carb bowls to gravity fill l, then perhaps ride off straight after starting and see if it stops at 4k. I'm not a mechanic, I just try to use logic and trial and error. Let me know how you get on.

@@Toms_Short_Movies good morning. I've popped a post on the rf owners site last night. Managed to find a wiring diagram too.
Hi Tom. Got my hands on a complete manual from the rf owners club.
