Re: needle clip height
Im sure stock is 3rd down, but if it pulls clean with no bogging you are ok at 4.

Re: needle clip height
Any chanceof some pics of your needles?
I'm having trouble with mine not revving, seeming to be lean so I was thinking that perhaps the needles are set wrong. I believe that the clip is in the middle of three settings on mine, but you say yours have four?

Re: needle clip height
Turning the pilot screws should clearly change the idle of the bike.
If you cannot tune the throttle hang out with the pilot screws then you have a vacuum/air leak.
Are the pilot screws fitted correctly with the o'ring then washer followed by the spring and then screw?
People fit them wrong and the pilot screws have little/no effect.
