Did the trick for me. If you're really stuck, PM me your address and I'll post mine to you, together with a couple of suitable Allen screws to replace the originals.

I have done mine today, I am very pleased with the result. Much less jerky! I got used to using the clutch, so now I have to get rid of that habit...
It was set up at about 3500 rpm and I managed to get it down to 1500, so there is quite obvious difference.

No problem with cheesy screws though - I got this set and it worked like a charm:

Paid £6.39 on eBay...

oh, I also used insulated paper clip which works great as it snaps in perfectly

The recommended bit from eBay worked a treat and the adjustment has made a massive difference. Went from about 4200rpm to 1900.

Pleased!

Finally got round to doing this today, wish I hadn't put off doing it for so long.
Took 20 mins from start to finish!
Couldn't believe it when the line didn't move till 4200. WTF Suzuki.
Guess mine was assembled at 4.45 on a Friday! Now moves at just under 1500.
Can't wait till Monday to try it. If you haven't done this yet, please do. Peace of pish!

Just to clarify. Is this necessary for the K7+?

It will have been right when it was built. This is not a modification, it's an adjustment, things change - if they didn't adjustment wouldn't be needed.

I notice that the TPS is on the rear throttle, so any change in the linkage between the two is going to change the TPS setting. Such changes will come when the TB balance is adjusted, or by wear in the link. I wonder why they didn't put the sensor on the front TB.
