![]() ![]() It has a hex ball on the end which means you don't have to insert the key square into the bolt head. You can insert it at an angle. |

Can you adjust the idle screw with an allen key? I thought it was a thumbscrew, with a phillips head cut in it for the tool users?
Perhaps I'm misunderstanding the question. The idle ajuster's not where it should be and is caught up under the tank somewhere? If that's so, the fix would be to lift the tank, remove the airbox, possibly remove the carbs, move the cable over. It goes under the carbs through the vee.
