I wouldn't mind finding something on the varajets stop screws.
I have a VH manual that basically says leave em alone. Nothing about how to adjust them to get them back to their original setting.

I got this info from my tafe teacher and its from an article from the "VACC" not too sure but it seems ok "Although no official ex-factory adjustment exists, the following method has been devised after a considerable amount of trial and error. If the idle needle screw has been tampered with and is preventing the engine from idling correctly it is possible to restore the base idle by turning the additional mixture screw in all the way until it seats. Having done this, adjust the throttle stop screw until the engine is idling at between 450 and 500 rpm.
Using the additional mixture adjusting screw, slowly increase the engine idle speed to approx. 800 rpm, making sure not to touch the throttle stop screw. Finally, raise the idle to approx. 900 rpm, using the idle mixture screw.

That doesnt give you the exact spec of the stop screw in numbers but if you do it then work out where the stop screw ends up then you'll know maybe?
