Carburetor How To Tune Air/fuel Mixture On Sniper Mx Carb?

sir Ive done it yesterday , 2-3/4 but suddently this morning , kapus .. Did not much the RPM..
So far so good. Tried the 2 1/2 turn out. The acceleration went better than 1 3/4. Did not do 3 because there was no change i rpm. Happy with 2 1/2 setting. No back fire and doesnt smell gas.
 
Sniper MX 2012 :D ...back then, before adjusting my a/f screw (stock adjustment since i bought my MC), every cold start my exhaust smells really bad like causing headache when smelling it :eek:.... but now smells burned fuel and no backfire on sudden revs or deacceleration on 100kph+ ...and its all stock except 15 42 sprocket:p
15 42 combi. Does this combi help to achieve 100kph quickly? :)

carb setting is not the same in other bike because of some factore like weather, humidy, elevation.. like my bike when hot summer the bike is ok but when the weather is cold or raining the bike is going rich a/f mixture..

This is absolutely right. Just to add, any type of carburetor is very sensitive to temperature changes. It's just how it is. If you tune the carb when the weather is hot, expect it to change when it suddenly gets cold, like when it's raining. This is the reason engines progressed from carbureted to electronic fuel injection. The computer box will adjust the air/fuel mixture for you depending on different variables.
