if you are all stock it should run just fine outside of setting the fuel screw and idle..

fuel screw is once you get it to idle, turn the fuel screw untill the idle starts to pick up its pace, then go back and turn the idle screw to lower the idle.

to check for the proper setting, dont think im wrong by this.. but rev the bike and you should NOT have any hesitation or stumble coming off of idle.
Been doing some reading on this "Mikuni" carb I got from GIO.... from what I understand, there is a high probability it is a Chinese fake. Regardless if it has Mikuni molded into it. Not the end of the world, but hopefully authentic Mikuni parts will fit it. Same carb on my dirt bike has been fine so far (fingers crossed...)

From what I read, and see stamped on the intake flange of this carb, it is a VM26-672U model.
Could be fake, wouldn't be surprised, but it works way better, and mikuni jets fit...and it's cheap.
