What do you use to adjust the idle mixture screws on your carbs? Any particular brands? I see Motion Pro has a 90 degree screwdriver but will that fit? Or just go to hardware store and get thin standard tip?

The only reason you would need 90 deg, is to adjust with the tank on, I use a long skinny flathead with the small tip and adjust from above the frame.

I have the motion pro 90 degree tool but use that on carbs with air screw on bottom. On my XS11 i use one of my cut-off short screwdrivers with tank on or a combination of that and a long skinny with tank off.
Beware when installing a kit, be sure all parts are exactly the same, often they are not. This is why i usually soak all original brass overnight and reuse itComment
