Bike starts first kick with choke when cold. Stalls with any revs.

A helpful trick I do for cleaning carbs. I use a can of brake cleaner, or WD40, with a straw attached to the spray nozzle, and put the straw tightly into each hole of the carb and watch the spray come out the other end of the hole. This way there is no chance of thinking it's cleared when there is still something stuck in the hole. Watch out you don't get it in your eyes!!

Be careful with air pressure on the Keihin as there’s a gasket at the base of the float tower that is impossible to find a replacement for. 

One other thing that can happen is putting the needle jet in upside down. Sounds ridiculous but I’ve done it.? The tapered hole goes up.

Thank you. Just to clarify. I’ve attached a picture. The way the needle jet is in this picture would be wrong?
