The adjuster on the cable is up by the handlebars. It may be hidden under a rubber sleeve.

I'm blind as a bat, found the adjuster. Checked the carb cable play and there may have been a bit more the carb could open up so I adjusted the cable so when the throttle was turned and I pushed on the carb round thing the cable rides on it wouldn't go any more and of course that messed up the idle so I cut that back to the point I had to loosen off the cable a bit more. So I got that sorted out and reset the ignition and set it to stage 2 ( maybe I shouldn't have done that at same time as the carb). So I hit the road and and it seems much better, I got it upto 150km or 93 mph and if I didn't have to slow down for the *** end of the truck in front of me it may have done better. So kudos to you John.
Thanks
