Here's mine at the moment (same altitude as before):

2012 250, Area P full quiet core exhaust, KN 0990, pregen CDI wired in, non stock gearing......Currently at 115 mains, 3 washers on the 38 Pilot and 2 3/4 turns. My bike runs amazing at all speeds/rpms now and is a blast to drive. It's bringing out the hooligan in me lol. I could dial it back to 112.5's, but I'm planning a motor build over the approaching winter. I might mess with the 40 pilot after the motor build, but it runs so sweet now.

I would look into either an air leak around the boots, did you put both throttle cables on correctly with enough slack/play? Is the choke cable actually going off with the lever? When you messed with the needles you didn't tear the diaphragms?

I've never had a high idle issue like that with pulling my carbs multiple times that's why I suspect a user oopsy.....just hard to pinpoint through the internet without seeing it.
