Hey all,

Re-jet my bike the other night.

2008 Ninja 250
Factory Pro Stage 3
110 Main jet
40 Pilot
4 washers under each needle

Pod filter
Stock header
Akrapovic slip on

Bike has a tough time starting, will come to life and then quickly die out (can't hold an idle)

After placing the bike on "prime" the bike starts and runs pretty well. If I rev it, the bike will hang a bit, drop under idle and then dies.

Idle screws are out 2 turns, I think.

What's going on? I've read the symptom could be running lean. Not sure where to start.
