zrx 1200r lacking fuel issues

gday, have just installed the kwik +4 degree and also a K&N #2990 pod filter on my 2008 zrx1200r, and in doing this is causing a lack of fuel problem, i have a new carbie recalibration kit and am just wondering what settings are required to overcome this problem.

The jets supplied in the kit are (2 of each) 128,130,132,135.

The bike will pull until it reaches 5000 revs.

Does the kit not come with instructions or a base setting? My one did and I put that in and have not changed a thing since, except going from stock to +2 then the ELS +4 ;)

I'd use that a starting point and adjust as necessary.

Mate. running like a Collingwood Rover! Getting ready to ride to Broadford.
Now I'm working on my Mark 2. That was my back up plan for Riddles creek but after I got the H running I went a bit slow on it. The zrx is the boy racer's.
