put a bigger pilot (slow) jet in and see how it runs. if nothing, try messing with the needle.

I'd wager you are probably running a bit too lean on the bottom and the top.

Are you re-honing your sleeve when you replace the rings? You really do need too. You need the cross hatching to help the 2 parts mate together.

If you have a local atv/cart dyno, they can usually get it dialed in very good for you for not too much money. ;) Always err on the rich side, then you can dial it back.

Are you running airbox lid off w/ aftermarket filter?
If so, with your mods you should probably be in the range of a 40-42 pilot jet, and a 132-135 main jet. Keihin jets.
