XTZ750 Supertenere on high altitudes

Hi,
Apparently there is huge problem with running XTZ750 on high altitudes due to obvious air/ fuel mix problem.
Anybody came accross "user friendly" solution? Which side to touch, air or fuel?
Thanks

I believe kedo.com has a "swiss" (think swiss cheese) set for them, that leans the carb out a bit (they seem to be overrich)

No dont think so, they just come overly rich stock, this kit leans it out to run better ( better ir/fuel ratio), and therefor get more km/ltr.

Why not get the bike set up properly on a dyno, maybe a tad on the leaner side, it should then cope fine with altitude???
