Re: idling issues

2 1/2 turns out is a good starting point.With the bike at operating temperature,turn the screw slowly out till the idle starts to roll(rich).Than turn slowly back in till the idle starts to get slow(lean).About midway between both extremes is were you want to be.Were the bike idles smoothest.If you are going to be a few minutes,it helps to have a fan blowing air on the engine to keep from overheating.

When you turn the screw out the idle will become uneven,you will know when you hear it,than slowly turn back in till idle is smooth.
