Default Adjusting the Idle -- NEED HELP PLEASE

Hey Guys,

Also need good links or posts on how to change oil and coolant !!! Thanks Guys

Do you have your motorcycle operation manual? It's all in there...

The idle adjuster is on the left side of the bike near the motor...it's a small dial and can be a bit difficult to turn at times.

All you have to do to adjust it is turn it left or right. When you turn it you will hear and see the idle change.

Dude, jump on the 5, head south and stop in Oceanside. Drop me a line before you do, and I'll meet up with you. Changing the idle is very easy and very quick.
