Hey guys, I’m at a complete loss. I have a 2010 ninja 250r that had been sitting for a while. I installed brand new OEM pilot jets, new diaphragms, and cleaned everything. It has a full battery and cranks well. If it’s sitting for a bit it will fire right away when cranked then die out and not start again. The wired thing is it starts with fluid and stays running/runs amazing and I can ride it with no issues. I have cleaned the fuel filters. Changes the fresh gas and am out of ideas. If anyone has any ideas or can guide me in the right direction that would be awesome. Float height is set to 17mm, needles are shimmed since the snorkel is out and the fuel screws are set to 2.5 turns out on both carbs. Bike has 12000km

Thanks in advance!
