Could be stuck in the carb. Even the slightest bit of dissimilar corrosion or oxidation between brass and aluminum can "weld" the thing in place. Brass gets "verdigris" and Aluminum gets that chalky degradation. Combine that with an ill-fitting, wrong size screwdriver and voila.

The whole bike may be fairly new, how new I don't know, but it does not take too long. The process is quickened with that dang ol' ethanol blended gasoline....
alright ill see if thats the case

We danced over the topic of screwdrivers but the screwdriver 🪛 has to have a narrow enough shank to fit into the hole where the jet is, and having the correct “bit” size on the tip is also important. Otherwise it is very easy to accidentally twist the screwdriver out of the slot in the brass jet and mangle it up good. Brass is much softer than the screwdriver and you can end up hogging-out (highly technical term!) the brass slot to where the screwdriver can’t do its job.

The best screwdrivers are the ones with “hollow ground” tips.

You nailed it. Tip width, thickness, and shank diameter are very important when that jet wants to play stubborn. Easy to mangle it. Just like you described.
