2001 GS Carb Jets Locations

I'm having difficulty figuring out where the mid and main jets are supposed to go in the carbs.  Judging by the rough diagram, the main jet (127.5) screws into the tall brass holder?

Thanks,

Yep, the pilot is the shortest pick up, the mid jet the 2nd and the main is on a long brass extender.

Awesome!  Thanks allot!  Looks I assembled my carbs incorrectly and put the mid jet where the main jet should be, d'oh!  I guess that would explain why the bike wouldn't rev past 4k.  I figured because the needle goes through the brass extender, that would be where you would put the mid jet.  From my understanding, the needle height basically affect 25% to about 75% throttle.  I figured that as you change the throttle position, the needle would change it's position as well, thus changing how much fuel travels through the mid jet.  This is my first set of carbs that run a 3 jet system, so things get a bit confusing.  Guess my reasoning was incorrect.  Thanks again!

No worries mate 


Are you rejetting your carbs or just re-assembling them?
