Rough idle, if it would. Poor response and throttle control, and really rich, and fouling plugs.

ya those are the exact symptoms im experiencing. the jet i lost was a 130 but the oem jet for sea level is 135. Does that mean someone previously put a jet kit in? I have yet to take the tops of the carbs for fear of that loaded spring. Also my bikes boging down intermittently after about 2 or so miles.. any thoughts?
