Bike year & model = 2005 de 200
Temperature (degF) =62-95
Elevation (feet) =1500-5000
Main jet = 172
Pilot jet =42
Needle & notch =LTR, middle notch
Air screw setting =2 out
Throttle valve/slide =# 7 with power-now(this cleaned up jetting from top to bottom)

Results:wide open jetting is easy, the transition from the basement to the mid was difficult. Technical terrian requires(from me, anyway) great jetting from idle to 1/4 throttle and the power now mod combined w/pilot and air screw being just right was critical. Poor idle was handled by cutting a little off a the spring on the idle adj screw. I know it is "primitive pete" but it works.
