How do I adjust my air/fuel Mix?

[New_rider]

Hey guys i just bought a GS550L and i put new plugs in it and it ran fine. But after riding for about 20 minutes all my plugs were fouled out. How do i make my Carbs run leaner. If thats the problem that is. I appreciate y'alls help.:-|

OK, so they "are fouled". How? Are they black and dry? Are they black and shiny? Are they brown and heavily covered?

Describing just how they are foluled will do a lot to help us diagnose your problem.

As Steve said we need to know if it's oil or fuel fouling. If it's fuel do a search. It's been covered a million times. If you're still stumped we will help you.

They are completely black and they are a little shiny but not much
