Welcome to the board, it's good to meet you.
In my experience, modern bikes are generally jetted quite lean to satisfy the folks at the EPA. A stage 1 jet kit basically corrects this, and that's all I was interested in doing.
You saying the stock setup "runs pretty darned well" gives me hope.

Do most people with the stock exhaust/airbox run stock jetting? Again, Kawasaki didn't make it easy to get the carbs off so I just assume not have to do this again anytime soon.
