The only reason I want to deal with the carb at all is that I was told my plug is showing it's too lean, and I invested in that Nibbi filter (hehe, yes, I am that cheap). Other than that, I have absolutely no reason to touch the carb. FWIW, running at half choke works, but the bike loses power.

GREAT to hear it's running right. Nice going! Now you have a base set of settings (airscrew turns, pilot and main jet size, needle shim...). What are they? You can now exploit what you've learned to improve performance!
