see this - i have just done mine, you just bend the tab on the float to get the correct height.

I was neew to it and it was confusing me but i have just done it, and the bike seems a lot better at tickover now. (I did balance my carbs aswell though)

Hope it helps you. :grin:

The manual will give you a fuel height, you attach a clear tube to the float bowl drain and measure it against the carb body. The tube is a Yamaha part.
