I'd start out with asking the old owner what
the jetting was set at.

Any aftermarket stuff, or is it stock?

Default carb tunning?

the old owner said the air fuel screw needed to be set but i have no idea to what it should be set to because i have no manuale and i need one. Do you know where i can get one. its all stock except for the exhaust which is a white brothers header and muffler, the carb has a QS 2 and thats about it

That is a fairly new bike. They have free manuals for 2001 and older
bikes, but not 2006.
