Lochie, What sort of linkages do you have i.e. cable or bar. With either type I suggest that first thing you do is check that they are the correct length and not holding the throttle open. You can check them by disconnecting the cable/bar from the first contact point on the carbies and then start the engine. High idle means that the throttle plates (butterflies) are letting in too much air. If it's still going too fast then look at the idle controls on both carbies. It only takes one to be set high to idle high. Sorting this out is only the start of your troubles with tuning twin dellos, you really need some experience and equipment eg a balancer to get air flows set even. Be very careful what screws you turn as the last thing you need to do is to burn a valve with a lean mixture.

It has twin 40mm dellortos, which have chokes. After I removed the carbies one day and re-installed them again, without adjusting or touching anything, my 1600 has been revving at about 2500rpm for its idle speed. Any help on how I lower it would be appreciated. I have tried fiddling with some screws on the carbies but they don't seem to do anything.
