I've read of a way to adjust the pilots that you might want to try. While the bike is running, slowly turn the pilot screw in until the bike starts to bog down. Then start turning the screw back out, counting the turns. The bike should get back to normal, then bog down again. Take the number of turns from the in point to the out point and divide by two. Turn the pilot back in that number of turns.
