where abouts is it running rich?
idle, progression, quarter throttle to three quarter or flat out?
you will need to alter a different circuit for each of the above, careful though as there is a MASSIVE effect on needle and jet changes on the GSXR11 at about three quarter throttle.

has someone fitted a dynojet kit then returned it to standard airbox? changed exhausts recently?, what condition is the air filter? have you adjusted the valves recently? plugs cleaned and gapped/replaced?

lots of questions.........neeeeeeeeeed more info.

idle mixture screw is under the carb, close to the inlet manifold, infront of the float bowl...

hi
when i start the bike you can smell petrol from the micron race can not sure if this is normal when i start riding she seems to calm down so its really when i start her and idle

thanks for reply :) :) :) :)

absolutely nothing to worry about, give it a good run to clear it out every now and then, and a GOOD service by someone who knows what theyre doing with "old-skool" and youll be well away :-)

Would suspect a sticking float. If it's run fine until now. It's not the settings.

also how rich?? Drips fuel, or a puff of black smoke?? As JD, need more info.
