The retainers are eaisly stripped with a good 6mm socket if the threads seize in the slide. The OEM cables can allow water inand it settles in the top of the slide causing this. A Motion Pro cable and anti-seize on the retainer threads cures this.
The '03 with the #6 slide was the biggest PIA to jet right of all my GGs, the #7 is a much better choise even at sea level. With the #7, the LTR needle, a DDK/DEK, or the JD Blue should work well. Being the bike is seven years old, I'd have Ron cut the slide and install a new nozzle. Also check your reeds, as bad reeds can really mess with your jetting.
