the first thing i did was set pilot screws they are back to original settingsthey are set to two turns like the haynes states
though i cant find anything in the haynes about how many turns the idle screw should be at factory setting
yeh thats what they are set too........................ i did it before putting the carbs back on the bike
this is what i did cleaned carbs out check pilot settings most where out some by 2 turns seated them and then turn out two turns got carbs back on bike set tps sensor.... then put on my gauges and balanced 1/2 then 3/4 then between 1/2 and 3/4 got them all level when blipping throttle.... but i forgot to set idle after wards so today i warm her up to running temp and adjust the idle screw on thing was it wouldnt turn any further i got it to 1000 -1100 rpm but it will not turn any further up it will only drop it down loads till it stalls
What's a "stealer"?

The 2 turns out should give you the correct air setting, from there you have to set the Hg it MUST be between 230 - 250mmHg on every carb before they're balanced the number is very important. Then the fun starts you've got to get 1/2 balanced still pulling the Hg then 3/4 and then balance 1/2 & 3/4 still pulling the the Hg figure if you can't get them all in balance pulling the Hg figure and idling at the correct speed there's something wrong.

I'm a bit confused by this - if I adjust the vacuum to 230-250mmHg on each carb using the pilot screws, what is left to adjust using the balance screws?
