Someone with Molkt Carb Experience? Need Jet advice

Just put my 108cc motor in my ST90. It is strategically marked 49cc on the cylinder so I can putz around with it all over without registering it. Its going to make a good city commuter until someone ponies up to buy it.

Never used a Molkt carb before but it is obvious not jetted correctly for my application. Somone want to give me some ideas on how to jet this motor I have here?

Carb is the Molkt 26mm Mikuni VM26 Replica that doesn't use the mikuni mains.

Engine:

Dratv 52mm stroker
51mm high compression piston
mild race cam
ct70 head, ported, with 25/22 valves
China ignition
200ft above sea level

I have no idea what jets are in it right now. It just about starts and sputters for a few seconds and peters out. I can't tell anything at this point. Obviously i'm going to have to get it a little closer to get it started.

Figured it should be pretty comparable to a tb106 kit.

I can't help with jetting but I did notice you are in Arlington. Stop by Coleman Powersports and say hello to RL Brooks for me, he loves old small Hondas and has been in the bike biz for donkeys years! (Don;t tell him I said that)

A 22/26 Keihin or Mikuni will be perfect for your 108. A VM26 will be a bear to tune properly throughout the range.
