Re:Air mixture screw 4 Months, 2 Weeks ago  
I just went out and turned my PMS in until it started to sputter and it was only 1 turn out I then backed it out 6 turns and it never made any difference could the Pilot jet be to large it is the stock 35?? Or is that the way it is suppose to be? and where do you think the PMS should be set?

Did you feel it needed to be adjusted? I set mine at 3 out from Lightly seated. 35 on the pilot should be fine. BB

Re:Air mixture screw 3 Months, 3 Weeks ago  
Does the PMS turn easily? Should I have to pull out or push in first before turning it (02 Silverado)?

The bike sounds PERFECT when I first fire her up (potato, potato, potatoe), and I do mean perfect. After I run down the road and she gets good an warmed up, it's like her idle is set to high when sitting still in neutal. Will adjusting the PMS help this problem?

Are you talking about the idle adjuster? The knob below the airbox.

Is that what that is?!?! This whole time I thought it was the PMS. Okay, yes, should the idle adjuster turn easily? And where is this PMS (other than currently with my wife...lol)...
