Stock AF16E '96 Elite SR

My stock '96 Elite SR doesn't have an air filter at the moment. Right now I have the Air screw turned out not quite half a turn. Does this sound about right?

Re: Wheel options for a 96' Elite SR?

I reacted a little hasty perhaps. I ended up taking the spring off and sticking it in the vice and bending inbetween the 3rd and 4th turn from the botton. I threw a zip tie around a couple of spots to maybe hinder it from turning too much to let it end up in a bad spot. Sat pretty firmly without the...

Re: Wheel options for a 96' Elite SR?

One of my buddies had traded for a Ruckus earlier this week and just now gave me the extra rear wheel that came with it. As soon as I get it mounted I'll take some photos. Which should be by sometime tomorrow, hopefully.
