From memory I'm pretty sure the idle idle adjuster is on the left side?
EDIT: actually maybe you're right I forgot now. I do my choke manually on left side so I may be confusing with that.
Does the idle speed adjust when you adjust the control?
Certainly a bit of WD40 or similar on the carb mechanisms once in a while can help them remain free. I snapped my choke cable due to a seized mechanism on the carb but WD40 released it no problem.
Just to give you an indication what you're looking for, my bike is set to idle at 1200 - 1300 when fully warmed up, with translates in to an idle of about 1,000 when the engine is cold (normal weather). If it's a very cold day then it might be lower and need a bit of choke.
