Default sportsman 500ho bog

I rebuilt the carb on my 01 sportsman 500ho last year and ever since then its had a bog between idle, and acceleration. Is there an adjustment on the carb for this? If there is where?

Thanks

did you clean the pilot jet? the pilot jet controls fuel flow at idle to low throttle. it is covered by a brass plug (easily removable) and is located under the intake opening in the carb.
