You need ALL carbs settings stock.
Make sure all the jets are genuine MIKUNI and not "kit" parts ..
Fit air corrector jets and go up a size from stock on the mains.

What pods are those ?
If they are cheap Chinese, Emgo,Hi Level , DNA etc or no name brand then throw them in the bin and fit good quality free flowing K&N, Ram Air, S&B, Unifilter and you should be good to go..

Hi thanks. Yes the carbs are set to stock. Mikuni jets are from Allen performance.com. Will look into the pods.
Do have air correctors but didn’t no what side to put them on as it look like all for carbs at 4 o’clock. And on other page 8 o’clock don’t no. Any one No ? Are the main jet size right.
needle is on clip 4 .

Ok the carbs you posted a pic of appear to have only an air screw (no pilot screw or both) so I am assuming they are vm24ss carbs and not vm22ss carbs. They also do not have a vacuum port on carb #2 so are from before 1979 as I understand it. So in that case they would of come stock with a 102.5 main and 15 pilot jets. There were some changes in needle and needle jets and the size of the cutaway on the slide between the set of carbs that fall within the time span.
If you post the ID stamped on the carbs (see attached) I may be able to provide more info for you.

I do not mean to confuse anyone. but the Y63 needle is not a stock needle, rather an aftermarket one. I do not know what if any differences there maybe between it and stock needles. To the best of my knowledge there were a couple of different needles and needle jet combos used on the air screw only vm24ss carbs from 77 and 78. Some of the needles are set to the 3 slot and some to the 4th slot. Not sure if any of this will make any big issues or not. Just wanted to make sure you know there were differences.

A bit obvious I know but you are sure that the multiple holes in the emulsion tubes that the main jet screws into are 100% clear.
It's no coincidence that it bogs at the point of transition to include main jet and before needle jet revs.

Hi right i have taken the carbs off. Cleaned and changed the pilot jet back to stock 15
Main jet back to stock 105. Put all back in started bike.And this was 100% worse than ever. Wouldn’t idel and when touching the throttle would die evertime.
So theses setting are no good i think. Seems i am going back wards on this . What next?

What kind of advance for the ignition are you using? What do your plugs look like? If the plugs are good it might be the advance curve.

A lot of things got wiggled around when you remove and install carbs.
When I was a teenager I was having a similar problem with an IT200. My stepdad traced it to one wire loose in one bullet connector.
So, check every single wire, every single ground, every single connection.
Can’t hurt.
