Take the carbs off, turn them upside down (Fuel will come out) and the screw face easch other. They may be behind caps. They will more than likely siezed though.

Yup. Anyway the mixture scres are normal set and forget and only affect the lower end of the rev range. Once you kno what you are doing its quite easy to pop the carbs off in under 5 mins. I have never altered my mixture screws in 50000 miles

You find manuals on the main site under FAQ , download from there, But Viney is right, don't muck about with them, but if you are going to, make sure you have decent screwdrivers and you also replace the cheese bolts with one made of metal while you're there.
Cheers Mark.
