So yesterday I tore into my carbs again because my bike has been acting funny ever since my dad dropped it. Needless to say he has minimal riding time now. :wallbash:

I took the carbs off the bike, and got them semi-broken down. I cleaned them up a little (not bad at all), did a bench sync with the BB method, and checked the float height. I picked up a digital micrometer from AutoZone for $29, so that was pretty cool.

Now the bike runs great and starts on a dime. However, whenever I pull out the enrichment knob, it gets pretty crazy and revs to about 4k, where before it would rev to 3. The middle setting on the knob doesnt really change anything at all, but it runs really well otherwise.

Also, where are the air/ fuel screws on the carbs? Are they the screws on the front of the carbs that are flat head? Some pictures of where they are would be awesome, as well as tips on how to adjust them wile the carbs are on the bike.

Thanks!
