to make the motor less rich you need to slowly adjust the needles on the carb, start with the high speed needle making small adjustments turning the screw clockwise. Turn the screw about 1/6th of a turn at a time. the high speed needle is the one that sticks out the top of the carb going straight up in the air.

here's a picture bro, do 1/8 turns clockwise, try it and run again, here is a couple of links to video's on tuning, you want to make sure you dont run them too lean:
