If they are EFI with the Delphi system then there is no adjustment. Does the bike have a EFI controller other than stock? 2001- 2005 might not be the same. I'm not sure the exact year M&M systems where discontinued.
EFI bikes don't have a "screwdriver adjustment"
They require a flash tuner to adjust.
If you don't know whether it has a carburetor or not, you shouldn't be monkeying with it...
Just sayin.

2001 is a magnetti marelli fuel induction and isn't the same as your 05. There is a screw hole behind air filter cover that you adjust it by. Search for idle adjustment on magnetti marelli systems. Not hard

A simple search will reveal all you need to know. I Googled 2001 Ultra idle adjustment. Make sure the bike is totally warmed up.

pretty simple to make adjustments if you have a tuner..., if so call the manufacture for assistance
