Has anyone added a rear disk guard to their X? Does anyone have an idea what swingers it mostly resembles?

Air/fuel mixture screw location?

Is the mixture screw hiding behind the silver cap that is between 7 and 8 o'clock from the idle screw when looking at the carb straight on?

Thanks in advance
