Default Running issues

Hey everyone, I am trying to sort out my 18 XC 300. Long story short I had some issues with my left and right crank seals for which I ended up blowing my top end. I replaced the piston and rings, had the cylinder inspected and was told it was still in good shape. I have some running issues with it which I suspect may just be carb related, dialing in my lectron still. I can see some light through the reed pedals so I am replacing those. I have an excessive amount of carbon build up on my piston for the low hours but all other points suggest my bike is running lean. I also tested the compression but did so without the reed block in (not sure if that will lead to inaccuracy or not) and am only seeing 115psi. See video below for how the bike sounds. I have gotten some suggestions to try but looking for all the help I can get. I love the way this bike handled and the suspension is amazing after I got it valved for me. I just want the engine to run right and have the power I need
