Can't help with main jet size,but if yer needles are on the middle notch raise 'em by one.Also,remove the two breather tubes from the carbs,this cuts down on the air turbulence and lets the float bowls fill easier.Try this site

and use the search facility (the Yanks call 'em POD filters),there are a couple guys on there know more about carburation than Mikuni!
