Hi all.

When I bought this '88 Westy, it had a really bad idle.
In an effort to smooth out the idle, I (ignorantly I think)
moved the track board so the wiper arm would contact new material.
I also adjusted the arm. This was less than 10K miles ago.
In hindsight, these things were likely not needed.
The AFM wiper is fairly delicate. I would suggest that unless someone has
relevant skills, bending the arm MIGHT lead to premature track wear.

My first reaction to the new track wear I saw was that it was excessive
given that I haven't put *that* many miles on it.

Neil.
