Default Stuck/Broken Idle Adjuster

So I tryed to adjust my idle and the screw is stuck. I tryed to wrench on it one way or another and nothing is happening. Has anyone replaced one of these or is there another way to adjust the idile.

I’m having same issue. Haven’t busted out a wrench on it yet. I’m wondering if issue is at **** end or other end. Seems should be a fairly easy hand turn. Anybody on why the **** won’t turn in either direction??

The **** should turn fairly easily.
But the throttle stop on the carbs rests on the end of the screw, so try opening the throttle by twisting the hand grip just a hair and then try turning the idle ****.
If that doesn't work, you'll have to take stuff apart and see why it won't turn. It's probably something simple.
It's very unlikely that it's seized up, unless the bike was parked outside for a very long time.
