I cleaned the carbs and checked the fuel/air screw and they were perfect along with the o-rings, so I put them back in, I put them at 1 1/2 turns out the first time and it always seemed to run smooth but as soon as you hit the throttle 1/4 way it way awesome, but if you hit it full it would fall on its face hard core, so I put the choke on a little then I got little more throttle out of it, so then I put choke half way I then was able to get a full throttle it sounded awesome, so I took the carbs off again and put the screws 1/2 turn more out, now it's back firing shooting flames out the back so I'm guessing it's to much now, so then I was thinking there out of sync so I now got them out of whack, everything is just gone completely wrong, and don't know how to go about fixing it, it seems as every carb has to be adjusted a slightly hair different idk but it was running way better with the dirty carb, I was at least able to ride it but know theres now way, just need help to figure this one out,
 
Unfortunately, your best friend for the RX-1 is a good carb sync tool. I ended up purchasing an old Motion Pro 4 carb sync tool that actually still uses mercury. Everytime I disassembled and cleaned my carbs, I always finished the job by sync'ing the carbs; makes a world of difference. And, don't be surprised if you have to disassemble and clean the carbs again as I've read where others have had to do this. Before I found the mercury sync tool, I was going to make my own referencing this link; even purchased all the stuff but never moved forward once I found the Motion Pro. Here is that link

Change the pilots. Or let them soak for a few days in carb cleaner pail or Electronic cleaner.
