Rough Running Concours	Quote \| Reply

Hello...I just bought a 2001 Concours with 10,000 miles on it. It seems to idle rough at 1000 rpm...kind of fluctuates from 800 to 1100 rpm....just rough. Is this normal for a Concours? There is also like a whining sound as the bike accelerates...other than that it runs fine when it's actually moving along. And 1 final question....the bike did not come with an owners manual and I cannot locate the oil filter...I took both fairing skirts off and still cannot locate it...any help would be appreciated.

Hello there,

I would take it for a mini tune up. It probably just needs to have the carbs idling tuned. I don't think it is going to be anything serious.

The air filter might be under the seat... but I would recommend buying a Claymer manual that is well worth it and shows you where everything goes.
