Moderator Posts: 12519 Re:What is that knob? 5 Months, 1 Week ago   The one that is down in the bottom of the V is the idle speed adjustment knob. Clockwise increase counter clockwise decrease. If you don't have an owners manual go to my site and click the projects button and scroll to the bottom of the second page and download the owners manual PDF file.

Then bolt on a Mikuni HSR42 and drive away happy forever.   Logged     http://aeechoppers.blogspot.com/   The administrator has disabled public write access. #445923 old dog (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1603 Re:What is that knob? 5 Months, 1 Week ago   Here is a link to all your manuals, http://www.paulmilner.com/yamaha/handbuch/handbuch.htm#roadstar bill   Logged     110 cu in., PR/JE 10.25:1 HC pistons, PR Cam, PR adjustable push rods, PR stage II ported heads (2mm oversize valves)   The administrator has disabled public write access. #445929 Edge51 (User) Gold Boarder Posts: 794 Re:What is that knob? 5 Months, 1 Week ago   I was told it is the idle adjustment. Usually tucked up so you can't see it but if you have aftermarket air filter (mine is K&N Eflo) then this line with a knob on the end kinda sticks out..... azbto wrote: Ok, so I picked up my 05 1700 over the weekend and have been scoping it out, well i noticed this knob looking device located on the right side of the bike just under the air clearn.
