hi,
the mikcarb on my bullet 500 ES obviously only has ONE throttle stop screw, not an air screw. is that normal? i'd like to adjust the idling a bit. no idea where to start... 8(
thanks for any kind of hint and tips.

No, not normal.
If it has no air screw, it is not a Mikarb.
The air bleed screw is typically a smaller angled shrouded screw an inch or so from the large throttle stop screw toward the mouth of the carb.
Same location as Mikuni.

Never underestimate the value of improved combustion efficiency and reducing parasitic engine and rolling chassis losses.
