Default Carb Needle question for Raptor...

I was just reading another thread and this crossed my mind. When I rejetted my rappy I used the GYT-R jet kit. It came with needles, main jets, and the pilot jets. I switched the pilots and the mains but didn't bother switching the needles. Do you guys think I should switch the needles as well? I took it out for a spin on the street but haven't had a chance to really open it up. It seemed to run perfect. Anyway, thanks for your replies...

That's what your paying for with that kit is the needles, put them in. Take the covers off the slides remove the spring then the slide and from the top of the inside of the slide pull the plug out that holds in the needle. Be careful there's a small spring and some washers under the plug, and then your needle comes out.
