I thought injection models should sort this automaticly?

The carb'd models have a screw you turn on the left hand side that can be reached through the frame.

ta pal they do sort them selfs out but do need adjusting from time to time

So do the injected models. Needs to be adjusted when the engine is at full operating temperature to around 1300rpm iirc.

You still set the idle speed manually on the injected model. When it's warm look for the philips screw attached on the left hand side of the frame. Follow the frame down from the left side of the main fairing. Turning it clockwise raises the idle speed, anticlockwise drops it. Little changes and blip the throttle to make sure it settles where you want. I'd be inclined to go for ~1500rpm
