Mikuni installed, fired right up, now tuning...

Okay, so i got the mikuni 44 installed and all buttoned up today. I started her up and she started right away! Woot, but...

I need some help with the way my linkage is setup, more specifically how the throttle return spring is setup, i posted a video below and you can see that i have to push it back to the point where it is idling. Perhaps my spring is not stiff enough? Could someone else with a mikuni setup please post a pic of there linkage?

And also, even when it is in what would be its idle, it is very high, like 1500 rpm... How do i adjust the idle?

Here is the video:
