Bike Overheating?

[Buckets81]

The electrical system is working fine. Not much left to go wrong there. Now I just have to get into it and replace seals so it stops leaking oil like a sieve.

jet black, the pilot jet is what ever came with the keyster kit. I have had the carb apart at least a dozen times. it should be very clean. last night I droped the clip on the needle down a notch. I rode the bike to work today and it did not shut off at a light, it just idled and I think the plugs helped to keep it running cooler. However, every now it then it would cough which tells me it is running a little lean now. The mix screw is 1 1/4 out right now, I am going to turn it in 1/2 and see how she does.

when I say I dropped the clip I ment the needle, I actually raised the clip to get it to run leaner.
