it should spray from 1/8 to 3/4 throttle depending on fuel demand. Does your bike have a hesitation off idle? if so you need to lengthen the squirt.

I have an 06 450er and it's got a hesitation when you get on the gas fast or hard. Taking it back to the dealer again to get this fixed, I'm wondering if it maybe the acc. pump jet?
Anyone else having this problem with their 06's?

no you won't have to.
