And any ideas for accessing that no 3 mixture screw? V interesting problem...
Mixture screw? ... When balancing carbs? Possibly you mean the throttle linkage screws? I bought a driver from eBay great tool and just for the job http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111383642364?_...EBIDX%3AIT

No. I did mean the mixture screw. I removed the carbs when the engine was running pretty badly, having been balanced by 2 bike shop.Removing the carbsĀ I found one mixture screw had completely fallen out! I replaced it, and set mixture screws to 2.25 turns out (they had been all over the place.) Instant improvement, almost perfect. Going to 2.5 turns on 3 screws made things deteriorate so now I want to reduce to 2 turns and that no 3 screw is v hard for my fat fingers to get at. I know Yam make a special tool but I wondered if anyone had any tips for getting round that.
