From a technical point of view, correcting jetting problems by adjusting the float level is horrendous ...
Anyway, when you are happy with the settings of everything except for idle, still beg to ask you ... why the step from #46 to #50? Try #48 for instance?

I don't see how raising the float level back to near standard,eg making the carbs get less fuel than what it is now and then running the bike like that with it coughing and surging can be running too rich...Especially when it would now be getting less fuel into the float bowl.The reason I think it's been set that way is someone previous has drilled the main jets.Out to what size,I have no idea,but it certainly doesn't lack any power.
I went to the #50 pilot jet due to them being priced at $24NZD and ex Australia.
But it seems I may have fixed the problem with the 1 1/2 turns out on the mixture screw.Will have to wait until I go trail riding again to get it super hot and see if the problem comes back,but for now it's starting normal again.
