Hi all
Just a thought, my fuel screw doesn't touch my lever at all, so I controlling my fuelling essentially with my hand. When im crusing in 4th gear, surely I can adjust the amount of fuel is going through, IE keep twisting the throttle back until i start loosing speed, would be the point of minimum fueling for that given power output, so anything more would just be overfueling.
Is there any reason to have the screw providing feedback back other than to prevent overfueling at 100% throttle at high speeds?

Re: fuel screw adjustment
For a while i ran my MZ Ynamar wihout the max set screw (i lost it) and i'd spend lots of thought while driving about not to overfueling. So a while back i replaced it with a "dumb screw" It works like a charm, just give it some throttle and away you go, no worries about cokeing the rings no more. I'øll never go back to driving without a means of setting max fueling.

Re: fuel screw adjustment
I had a play about with it today and I know what you mean, Its muyhc better to ride after a little bit of tweaking, and my exhaust gas temps are lower as well (also hopefully fuel economoy will be better!)
