That is one that varies depending on carb. Some can be adjusted quite easy and some even require removal of carbie from bike. Read the shop manual for your carb (bike manual if you have stock carb) Most have a bendable tab that controls adj. and you gage it with a drill bit (or ruler)with carb upside down.

What bike have you got?
Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.
