You need to do some plug chops to determine the proper settings. The air screw should only be backed out 1-1/2 to 2-1/2 turns out. If yours needs to be less than 1-1/2 then you need a bigger pilot and vise versa.
You can get a bucket load of input from the forums but the only true way to dial a bike in is DIY.
There are a lot of factors involved in why your bike won't start right away, compression, stator trouble, carb and even a plugged silencer.
The best advice that I can express to anybody that owns a bike is to have a service manual.
If you need anymore advice or have specific questions, call the shop and ask for me. I might be able to shed some light on some of your problems.
