So yet another starting thread, I have looked but havent found the answer...
Anyway my bike 2002 FC 470, PHM 40 dellorto. Standard jets as Per manual needle circlip as manual advised mixture screw 1 1/2 turns from bottom. carb was stripped and cleaned with new parts atomiser and needle. as the carb was in a million and one parts and the idle screw was out and now I cant start it, it fires, then dies. Im thinking either not enough or too much fuel. so any advise on how to set the idle to a point where I can get the bike running would be appriecated.
thank you.

I would try turning the mixture screw to 2 1/2-3 turns out. The manual spec settings have not worked on the 3 Husabergs I've owned. It sounds like the idle mixture is too lean.
