Hey Boss, didn't you have Glenns tool? Just wondering why you put this on if you have the tool...do you adjust the carb that often or you just wanted to be even easier to do. It is kinda cool though.:mosh:
Glen's Perm A/F Screw
Got my new Glen's perm A/F screw and finally had time to put it in the carb. First let me say that if you have the stock airbox get ready to remove the usual parts, seat, tank, airbox and what ever else you might want to remove. Once that is done and the old A/F screw is removed it is a piece of cake. The screw come complete with spring, washer and o-ring somethignI was not expecting, went in very easy and was no problem adjusting. This is a must have for all of us stock airbox guys. Thanks Glen.

I do have the tool,no I don't adjust that often was just looking for a easier way. I have also removed the crankcase tube from the airbox and rerouted it down by the passanger side of the bike, a mod done by Charlie D. :choppersmHey Boss, didn't you have Glenns tool?

What is the Charlie D mod by the way not high jacking the thread I installed the permanent mount screw yesterday and love it
Instead of the crankcase breathing through the airbox, you run a hose from the head along the backbone and down by the rear peg and install a small filter on the hose. It easy to do and keeps the oil out of the airbox.What is the Charlie D mod by the way not high jacking the thread I installed the permanent mount screw yesterday and love it
Just for thought I had a guy who is a pretty good mechanic telling me to pull the crankcase breather out of the air box and hook it into on of the heads were the pair valve was. You must have your read valve in place for it to work but he says it will lower the crankcase pressure and help a little with performance.:hmm2:I had already removed my reeds or I might of tried it.If Glen made it just a little smaller to be the same as the drain plug then you could use a small tie wrap and tie them together loose and would be bouncing around.
I meant to say Idle adjustment
just got back from a short ride, bike seems a little rich will make a minor easy adjustment and take her on another run. This is much easier then the adjustment tool and a whole lot easier then the old way.
