Need more details/specs of your bike that you want to use a full ethos system on to understand.

generally Japanese systems are designed to run ok with stock jetting.

If its an 89 bike you can put at least 115 / 118s in it as 110s are quite lean anyway.

118 / 120 is a choice used too, depends on altitude but ive found this to be rich sometimes.

Well, thats the first step, and I'd also pull the plugs and have a look at those.
