450r NOOB...help me out

[trict_out]

I figured id get more responses here, I've been told a 13 tooth will help out with the stalling and incredably tall first gear. Should i turn up the idle a bit to help too? And also what is the fuel mixture screw and exactly what does it do? Thanks in advance

Yes, a 13 tooth will help you. It made it perfect for me.

The fuel mixture screw helps you get your jetting (right on)

I'd like to help but I don't own a 450r and don't know a whole about it:(

the fuel screw is on the very bottom of the carb. it is a little closer to the left side than the right side of the carb. it is a little brass colored screw that you turn with a flat blade screwdriver. this screw will richen (if you turn it out) or lean out ( if you turn it in) the fuel mixture from idle to around 1/8 throttle or so.

a 13 tooth front sprocket is nice to prevent the bike from stalling. top speed will suffer though.
