Run the shee wide open in 6th gear for 5-10 seconds, shut it down, coast to a stop and check your plugs. That'll let you know how your mains are....Pilots and needles are mostly trial and error..try different clip positions on the needles and see which one pulls the hardest..As for the pilots, how well does it start?

[kazaa187]

well its cold here rightnow so it takes a few kickes but once u start it it starts first kick

Well one would assume (but we know what that means) that the previous owner should have had it jetted approximately correct, assuming (again?) that he was from the same area, ie. elevation, temp etc. It sounds like your pilot jetting (idle circuit) should be pretty close given the few kicks and then first kick startup after warm. If it seems to pull good through all rpm ranges chances are good that you're pretty close. As mentioned, do the WOT plug check and see what the plug color indicates. You are aiming for a light chocolate milk type color more or less. If you need to make adjustments to the midrange or WOT make the WOT first as it will affect your midrange. Once you have the WOT (main jet) adjusted make the appropriate needle adjustment to the midrange. Oh yeah, you can check out the pinned threads at the top for a full-on assault on this topic. Unfortunately, there is no cookie-cutter design, as every bike will respond slightly different.

03LB pretty much hit it on the nose. Pilot sounds pretty good, plug check and try raising the needles on clip to see how it feels, but do one thing at a time....adjust the air screws to throttle response and highest idle...I usually do this at an idle in neutral....(throttle response)
