'08 BF idle adjustment screw
Hey guys/gals. I need some help. I was stupid and thought the idle adjustment screw had something to do with turning the fuel on and off (same location as my old Fourtrax). I can't figure out where it screws back in. A pic or diagram would be nice. I've looked, and I can't seem to find it. The only diagram I have been able to find doesn't help either. Can someone help me out?

actually figured it out...and i'm going to share it with a picture for anybody else with the same problem. i found a diagram of parts, and worked with it to show you what you need to know.
You want to take the left side plastic panel off (the side the screw is on). It's also a little easier if you take the exhaust cover off under that as well. In the picute, take the cover off of the compartment, and you will see a hole next to the drain tube. this is where you need to screw in the idle adjustment screw. we weren't sure if it had a spring or not, but we put one on just for fun. the picture should direct you in the right path.

That's a carbed unit...05-07. You said an 08, which is fuel injected. Completely different.

not too sure about that. mine's titled as an '08, and you can view the engine schematics for an '08 here: bikebandit.com/houseofmotorcycles/2008-kawasaki-motorcycle-kvf650f8f-brute-force-650-4x4i/o/m17990
i would link it if i was over 15 posts, but i'm not. maybe it's the 750 that's fuel injected.
if you also look at kawasaki's site, it will tell you that the 2008 Brute Force 650 is a carbed unit. it has a Keihin CVKR-34 x 2 carb. that info can be found here: kawasaki.com/products/product-specifications.aspx?id=247
