what temperature and elevation you ride at?? typically, i found it best running with a keihin 150-152 with just a removed lid.

way low elevation like not even 200 ft above sea level. And here in arizona it goes from the lowest about 40 to the highest about 120 degrees.

wrong. Stock is 148. If the only mod you have done to your bike is remove your lid, than I wouldn't go any higher than a 152. Put a 150 and do a plug test, but that should be good.

yeah, a 152 or 150 should be good.

Thanks guys. :macho What would my jetting need to be with no air box lid and a k&n? Everything else still stock.

Most likely the same. Your limiting factor is going to be the exaust. When I first got my quad, I pulled the airbox lid, and never had an issue with the stock jetting. You might want to concider uping the pilot jet, it seems to make a big change in starting.
