We had a similar sounding problem with Draik's '08. We cleaned (fully, by taking our all the jets), shimmed the needles and have to keep in on PRI... seems to work fine for us now.
The slides cannot go in backwards? I thought they fit both ways. But either way I have the bike running and iddling in the back of the ware house right now. If I hold it wide open on choke it will sputter and run just above idle RPM and if I leave the throttle at idle it will idle. Everything else is stall.

I spray carb cleaner into the air box and rev it up and it will roar to life

Does that mean it must be a fuel delievery problem?

I sprayed Carb cleaner through each jet and it seemed to blast right through un obstructed....

I sprayed straight up through the main jet
Through the two little jets when you look through the venturi
I sprayed through the float valves

The carb did not look dirty it just had a yellowish film built up in it. Very little corrosion.

I guess I should just pull the carbs and try and try again ???

What other jets may I have missed?
Is it really necessary to remove the brass main jet to clean it?
