Unlike my old '09 TMEC, I have not touched the idle screw or anything, as well as there are no exhaust leaks on my new TMEC, meaning the stock carb, at least for me as a daily commuter at 33 miles round trip, works fine.

If I was planning some trail riding on it (I would definitely want knobbies, LOL), I would probably swap to one of those Mikunis you always link to, so I could play with the jets. But bone stock, the carb is well suited to the bike right out of the crate, at least for my intended purposes!
