Finding a way to turn that screw (if equipped) is the challenge. I use a tiny hex ratchet with a flat head screwdriver bit.

i guessed so. the space available is close to none.....haha.....went out just now and experienced the same thing again. Was at the traffic light, in 1st gear, clutch fully pressed...engine died while idling and took a few attempts to start it back.

Hi, I own a KTN RS3 too. I am from Penang, Malaysia. I am having problem for both engine cold start and restart after engine is warmed up. The engine died after engaging the first gear even though the clutch lever is fully pressed. My current RPM setting is around 1.8k to 2k. I think it is too high. and I often smell fuel from the exhaust. I will send my bike back to tuning this Saturday since it is still under warranty.
If you would like to tune the carb by yourself, make sure that you do it after the engine is warmed up. Cheers |

Your problems also sound as if they might be caused by an improper adjustment of the pilot mixture screw (PMS). Indeed, the PMS should be adjusted when the engine is hot. I emphasize, the engine must be hot, not warm. ;) After your problem is resolved, please let us know how it was fixed. :) |

Not sure am I doing this right. I haven't posted in forum for a long long time. Please let me know if you all can view it. I have changed the top box to bigger box. The rest remain the same as the rest of the world. ;) |

Where did you get your bike. looks like the idling thing is a common prob for new bikes. What box did you get? am looking for one also coz the current one is just a bit too small. |

Confirmed there's a brass screw under that carb and it should be the PMS screw.
Problem now is getting there is a pain. Space is so small. Cant even get the smallest screwdriver in there let alone my hand or fingers. And with the hot engine right in front...... Unless you have an angled screwdriver or the long flexible ones.... Guess i need to send it to the shop to do it. |
