When I fitted a dynojet kit to my carbs , I took note of how many turns it took to seat the screws which was 3.5 .
The instructions then state 3.5 turns from fully seated, hope that helps :thumbup:

Quite normal setting on f e a 900.
2,5-4 turns is the normal spectre if you mean Mikuni CV38 carbs w standard jetting.
