Hi Spanner,
Yes, thanks. I went looking for the two screws ( tick over & balance ) I know there supposed to be up there, but can i see them ? never mind trying to adjust them when its hot.
I will be trying this and other stuff at the week end ( a mate at work has a set of gauges )
Many thanks

For freeing off seized screws, its often useful to give them a sharp tap on the end (axially, ie down the length of the thread) with a hammer and drift (I'd suggest an ally drift).
This jars the threads lengthwise and can very often "crack" any corrosion.
Go easy though, but be positive and firm.
Also, I've heard tell that "plus gas" is one of the most effective penetrating fluids. WD40 is less effective.

I'd be inclined to free everything off and then get the fuelling set up on a dyno to match the cans, cut airbox etc.
A little expenditure on this could save a whole lot of diy twiddling and would have a guaranteed end result.

No problem, Dynojet may change the pilot jet but only to improve the fuel economy so you may be right on the sizes for an M600 but the bike should run on the standard ones regardless of everything else except perhaps if the mixture screws are all over the place as suspected.
