New A/F Adjustment Tool
Better than my birthday.............
On Friday I got (2) new a/f screws from Hick, and on Saturday I got a new adjustment tool from Glen's Garage that has a 1/2" socket on it to fit the screw Hick makes. So Sunday I took the tank & airbox off to install the screw. The installation of the screw was very easy. Having a stock air box, the only access is from the left side, and that is very limited. Although there is one hose that is almost directly below the screw, Glen's tool is able to get right up in there pretty easily and makes adjustments a snap!! Not having to take the tank & airbox off each time to make an adjustment is awesome!  Both products are well worth the investment!

 Thanks MA-X Rider. I made this tool for the guys with Hicks 1/2 hex a/f screw. This tool has a different bend than my d-bit a/f tool. It looks like it worked good for you. Enjoy your ride. Glen Last edited by dearsleigher; 03-23-2009 at 03:32 PM. |
