Finally have some time to finish up cleaning the carb on my '02. The weather calls for rain all day, actually all week so I'm hitting the shop. Since the bike runs but stalls out at half throttle I'm guessing the main jet is the problem. Just going to drop the bowl and float and work on the carb while still on the bike. I'm still running the air box and really don't want to drop the carb unless it's necessary.

Got it working after two or three teardowns. Found the idle jet pretty much plugged up with crud and used a torch tip cleaner wire files to open everything back up. Don't know if it was part of the problem but there is a vent on the side of the bowl running to an orifice at the bottom of the bowl which was plugged solid. Still raining so no road testing till later.
Once back together it fired up on the first crank and sounds good up and down the throttle.
Love the smell of burnt hydrocarbons on a rainy day.
