My '05's needles have only one clip groove, which is why adjustments have to made with shims. I haven't been around Ninja 250s long, but from what I know, it seems you have non-stock carbs, or someone changed your needles.

Needles I have that have multiple grooves have them 1mm apart. Methods vary, but you can get 1/2mm adjustments with 1/2mm shims or other nifty methods. But any shimming more than 1/2mm makes no sense.
