Both?
Mine always used to go clockwise and then anti-clockwise back to where it originally was..
It never did a complete cycle just part of the way

It goes both ways.... What way 1st? Was looking on the net earlier and most say anti clockwise but found 1 or 2 that say they can go either.
Basically I turned the valve so it had no bottom end but loads at 7000rpm but it was doing my head in so put it back but now it's got loads of bottom end but the power band don't seem to be to great.
Anybody In or around derby fancy setting it up for a price?

I live in Barnsley so abit of a hike, especially in this weather..

Some basic instructions are:
Take exhaust off
Slacken cables
Finger up into cylinder through the exhaust port
Adjust cables until powervalve feels flush with the rest of the cylinder
Re-tighten cables and double check to make sure it's in position (be sure not to over-tighten the cables)
Re-fit exhaust
Job Done
Test ride
Come back and let us know how it went..?

Needless to say, don't turn the ignition on or kick the bike over while having your fingers inside the exhaust port

i think its best to have it turn anticlockwise 1st i tried the other way clockwise  to anticlockwise but if your out by a bit on the adjustment it can catch the piston  as i found out TWICE  one mashed piston   the other time it just nipped the rings jammed em in

im finding just minor cable adjustmet back or forward ,within the two lines either side of the p/v locating hole under the cover works well for atering performance.

derby aint to far from stone stafford are yya m8
