#636660 FatJay (User) Life's to important to take seriously. Platinum Boarder Posts: 1772 PMS a PITA to get to 4 Years, 9 Months ago   I put the new intake on and now I can't hit the PMS without taking the intake off, which makes adjustment a real hassle. I remembered someone making an extender of some sorts for it. Does it attach to the screw to extend it, or does it replace it entirely?   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #636662 scooter76 (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 2977 Re:PMS a PITA to get to 4 Years, 9 Months ago   Couldn't agree more.

Some others, as I recall, have made an extension. I haven't done either. I use a mirror and a screw driver.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #636667 DAVECS1 (Visitor) Gold Boarder Posts: 662 Re:PMS a PITA to get to 4 Years, 9 Months ago   I soldered and old clutch cable to the screw. You need one with the lead stop on one side as it wil solder. Then I soldered a brass fitting on the other side I cold grip. That way I could tune around my hypercharger.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #636670 Erbman02 (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 7000 Re:PMS a PITA to get to 4 Years, 9 Months ago   Scooter76 wrote: Couldn't agree more.

There's a Tech Article, that has something shown like what Dave did, where they soldered a piece to the end of the PMS. I don't mess with mine that much. I usually just keep track of what I need to do, and then turn it 1/4 turn in the direction I think it needs to go when I get around to it. I think I've adjusted mine twice in the last year. Once to turn it in last summer, and once to turn it out because it was popping slightly in the cooler weather. This way I'm not burning my pinkies, fiddling with it when it's hot. My solo bike, just has the regular PMS, and I can adjust it with a screwdriver after removing the Airbox. Both of mine are within a 1/4 turn of 2 1/2 right now.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #636679 wild_mac (User) Expert Boarder Posts: 515 Re:PMS a PITA to get to 4 Years, 9 Months ago   attach a piece of rubber line to the head of the screw   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #636680 greyphart (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 6701 Re:PMS a PITA to get to 4 Years, 9 Months ago   Got the Baron's screw and put a small piece of hose on it with a mark on the outside when it's adjusted to zero turns. Hangs down far enough to see and easy to get at. No issues yet.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #636716 smokescreens (User) lifes better riding twins Platinum Boarder Posts: 17430 Re:PMS a PITA to get to 4 Years, 9 Months ago   If its the stock carb barrons makes a replacement screw. I still ended up sliping a 3" piece of 5/16" fuel line on the end after that so it stuck out past the bottom of the carb bowl.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access.
