Urbanmadness- I swapped the rollers out since they had flat spots. So unless I order new ones I'm SOL for going back to the original setup. Otherwise I agree in changing one thing at a time.
Alleyoop- using your method, it's supposedly running rich, backing off the throttle it burbles once and smooths out. However, leaning the air/mixture as a little effect on top power until its well outside of the range for other throttle settings. In fact I was surprised how little of an effect it had when setting the A/M screw per the service manual and your method. There is almost a full half turn of 'play', where it has no effect on idle speed. It's runs at the same idle between 1-1 1/2 turns out. And within this 1/2 turn of play there is little to no effect on the WOT (subtle) stumble. Is this normal to have that much play?
I ran out of time to kill it at speed and check the plug. Ill do it this weekend. At this stage it runs well enough to give it back to the owner and have him give me better feedback since I've never ridden one properly sorted.
