ABSTRACT:
A remote motorcycle idle adjustment control device attachable to a motorcycle and which allows the remote adjustment of a carburetor of the motorcycle by a rider while the rider is riding the motorcycle. The device includes a bracket, a slender, horizontally-oriented, rigid, and cylindrically-shaped shaft, a cylindrically-shaped and externally-knurled adjustment knob, and a carburetor adjustment screw. The bracket is attachable to an engine of the motorcycle at a position remote from the carburetor of the motorcycle. The slender, horizontally-oriented, rigid, and cylindrically-shaped shaft extends rotatively through the bracket. The cylindrically-shaped and externally-knurled adjustment knob is attached to, and for rotation with, the slender, horizontally-oriented, rigid, and cylindrically-shaped shaft. The elongated, slender, and flexible cable is attached to, and for rotation with, the slender, horizontally-oriented, rigid, and cylindrically-shaped shaft. And, the carburetor adjustment screw has a head attached to, and for rotation with, the elongated, slender, and flexible cable, and a threaded portion that threadably engages, for adjustment of, the carburetor of the motorcycle, so that when the cylindrically-shaped and externally-knurled adjustment knob is rotated by the rider from the position remote from the carburetor of the motorcycle while the rider is riding the motorcycle, the slender, horizontally-oriented, rigid, and cylindrically-shaped shaft is caused to rotate in the bracket which in turn causes the elongated, slender, and flexible cable to rotate which in turn causes the carburetor adjustment screw to rotate in the carburetor and adjust the carburetor of the motorcycle while the rider is riding the motorcycle allowing for a more accurate adjustment.
