well, going by your signature I am assuming alot.
with the stock airbox lid in place & a K&N filter I would assume your jetting might be ok in stock form. If you have a modified or removed airbox lid you will want to consider a jet change.
your stock main jet should be a 148. You would need to go to around a 160 or 165 I would think.
to remove the main jet simply pull the drain plug off of your carb bowl, reach up inside with a socket (8mm I think) and remove the main jet. No need to remove the carb from the bike.
that's a good question!
a super secret, how-to-jet article is in the works, anyone that wants to help out and lend there expertise drop me a note!

THANKS 3PUNKSDAD THATS ALOT OF HELP. YEA I HAVE THE AIRBOX LID OFF BUT I HAD OUR LOCAL HONDA SHOP DO THE JETTING FOR ME AND I DON'T KNOW IF I CAN REALLY TRUST THEM OR NOT IF YA KNOW WHAT I MEAN. IT TOOK THEM A WEEK TO DO THE JETTING!
How did your Honda set it up? Tell us the jet sizes and air/fuel screw settings, hopefully they told you or will tell you if they still remember.

If you want your quad to start real good, change the pilot jet; although it takes a lot of time.
