But each carb set were/are 100% stock jetted as supplied by Keihin/Kawasaki....that, in itself, represents a fair (apples to apples) comparison in my book.

Could a quality jet kit with adjustable needle and selection of mains offer improvement on either carbset? Investment, time, effort required to explore, but not in the radar here.

This should answer your question about jet sizes, any other questions I will defer to @ducatiman

I still need to fine tune the idle mixture screws, but out of the box it's pretty close.
