If you have VM carbs, these fuel screws are worth a look.

I picked up a set of these for my bike when I had to order some other bits. They seem to be quality castings and better than the crappy K&L jets that come in those rebuild kits. I am not familiar with Keyster's reputation on that front.
Absent problems with casting and materials, however, I like these screws MUCH more than the OEM parts. Check this picture:
Notice the top? It extends about 1/4" further from the o-ring than the OEM screw. The top of the screw is slotted but also has a knurled cap, which is a little hard to see in the picture.
The net result is that the top of fuel screw ends up outside of the bowl channel, so you don't have to navigate the Death Star trench to turn it. The knurled top also allows you to turn it with your fingers. Thus, these screws are far easier to adjust while the carbs are on the bike.
