Jack Flash, I don't remember if I thanked you in the past.... Just wanted to thank again for the thumbs screws, it makes it so easy to adjust with accuracy, well worth it.

Please tell me you still have some available
[QUOTE=Jack Flash;366055]Once again, I'm back with this idea I've had for some time now about finding the perfect fit for replacing the impossible to adjust fuel screw. Well, after having tried too, and using some other types of needles, I've also realised that every time I wanted to do a small change, turned into a complicated task.
So, the only thing to replace the OEM screw, is with a perfect copy....with benefits, like a thumb screw. I had a few sets made through someone I know. CNC machined in brass, to the exact specs as the OEM. Works perfectly, and fits beautifully.
Bellow, a few pics to see what they look like. You will notice one is shorter then the other. This feature is to clear the water fitting on the front cylinder. PM if interested in a set. Not looking to make any money, but, cover my costs for making them 37$ for the pair shipped in NA.

Don't even try to get any warranty service out of this guy.
Edit: Just to be clear, the above statement is just this VTR1000F guy being an *******. This Jack Flash guy is of the utmost trustworthiness and stands behind his product for which, I imagine, he makes little to no profit from, rather providing these thingamabobs as a service to fellow SuperHawkers. If I didn't know better, I would never guess he was Canadian.
