Idle Speed Adjustment
My Vara seems to be ticking over a bit too fast for my liking at the mo. I've not used the idle speed adjuster doobry before, but on having a little go at turning the thumbscrew it doesn't seem to want to go. I don't want to force it and break something!
Is there a nack to this that I'm not aware of? Or has it just come off at the other end!

Re: Idle Speed Adjustment
I have just upgrade an 02 to an 08 and the new one idles around 1500.
I am not used to this and keep thinking something is wrong. I have not found a nice adjuster knob as my Carb model had. I kept the idle low on the 02 to just under 1000 rpm. Is there any adjustment for idle on the FI models? I have read a few posts here and it seems that Honda has upped the idle speed a bit. However I still think 1500 is a bit too high.
