Any issues came of both picco's that seem not to last long and both threw rod's.
If you have managed to pass the hard breakin process of the Novarossi then the VSR02 should not be a bigger problem. Just pre-heat well the engine for the first start and the first gallon and you should be OK.
If this would have been your first engine I would suggest a Picco, easier to run-in.
Carburetor setting should not be a problem, in general after the running-in I just needed to close more the idle needle and lower the idle and then just set the main-needle.
