yeah you dont want to be messing with the pilot jet. You want to adjust the fuel mixture screw. It should be a screw on the outside of the carb.

If its the same as the 500 Foreman its on the bottom of the carb. And you will need a special screwdriver, That should have come in your jet kit, to adjust it. It is resessed into the car a bit, so you can not see it from the side.
