I think it is too high. and I often smell fuel from the exhaust. I will send my bike back to tuning this Saturday since it is still under warranty.

If you would like to tune the carb by yourself, make sure that you do it after the engine is warmed up.

Cheers
Welcome; we are glad you joined us.

Your problems also sound as if they might be caused by an improper adjustment of the pilot mixture screw (PMS). Indeed, the PMS should be adjusted when the engine is hot. I emphasize, the engine must be hot, not warm. After your problem is resolved, please let us know how it was fixed.
