Note that this is 2 separate adjustments.

1. "highest idle" mixture setting will have any randomly variable RPM depending upon what idle-speed screw is set to. Ignore actual RPM when making this adjustment. Just set mixture-screws to "highest idle" speed, whatever that may be. Then add 1/8th turn.

2. repeat for other carb.

3. THEN, FINALLY, make final idle-speed setting to ~1300 with idle-screw.

4. Use choke for cold-starts and adjust choke as necessary to change idling speed as bike warms up.


Due to your short commute, try getting in at least one long ride during week. Fully warming-up is important to boil off water condensation from crankcase and oil.
