    Not sure, I think this has been answered before, just can't find it...

    My Maxim currently Idles at approx 800 RPM and at that speed the engine stalls out. From what I have read everywhere, it should be set at 1050 +-50 RPMs.

    Could someone enlighten me on how to adjust the idle speed or is it something that is to complicated to do myself and better left to a pro.

    There is an idle speed adjustment knob under the gas tank in the middle of the carbs...

    Don't have a picture of it personally but I'll check about.

    Here's a picture of my seca 750 carbs when they were off the bike.
    The adjuster is in the middle at the bottom as shown!
    Good Luck
