Hi and welcome.

Someone may move this to the CBR section for a better reply, but in the meantime if you can clean your carbs and search out a copy of a Haynes manual this will be a good start. the mixture screws should be 2&1/4 turns. If its an R model, 1994 0nwards, jets will be 106. But if you dont have a standard exhaust set up it may be higher, such as 108s. Also try a new air filter or if its K&N clean it, make sure you have no leaks on your carb rubbers and air filter.

2 1/4 turns - you wind them in all the way to the stop, then you turn them back 2 times then a 1/4.

Make sure you remove them 1st and check the rubber washer ( or o-ring ) is in good condition ) My settings were all over the place, after setting correctly it ran like a dream.

On the side of the carbs nearest the engine , if you look underneath you see a single brass screw ( one on each carb)
It adjusts the fuel/air ratio . Screw it in less fuel , screw it out more fuel.
From fully screwed in you turn it out 2 1/4 turns. (If you put a K&N filter on you'll need to adjust the mixture slightly.)
Also if you remove the brass screw completely there'll be a spring , a washer and a little rubber "O" ring behind it.
The o ring can perish. 8-)

106 is the standard main jet size in the carbs and 108 is the next size up, usually put in if you have any aftermarket exhaust parts or a k&n filter.
