I installed Roadhouse slip-on's, and I need to close the fuel / air mixture screw 1/4 turn as it is running a little rich.
Now I have the bike tore down and I can't locate the F/A screw.
Is it the same as the pilot screw in the manual, is it located on the outside of the carb?
HELP

Thank's

I found it

Behind the float bowl. You need a D tool to adjust it. Send me a PM if you want, I have one and I'm right down the street from you.

I was able to give it a little turn but now it's back firing through the carb on acceleration, I guess I'm just gonna have to pay someone to add a stage 1 jet kit and adjust it right.
I probably had no business trying this on my own, ended up putting a ding in my tank and now it runs worse
Thanks for the offer, I really appreciate it.
