In the middle of the carburetor there is a plug; drill out this plug carefully and there will be an adjustment screw behind it.

Then bore out the jet 0.001 of an inch at a time and adjust the screw.
If you have put on an after market air breather this will stop the thing from spitting at the stop lights if it is inclined to do so.
It will also run a lot better. (PS I out ran Yamahas with mine.)
