Default Jetting for a curvy with pointy cams etc

Hey folks,

I own a 2001 S, currently equipped with a K&N Filter and a LeoVince SBK 2 slip-on exhaust.
Some weeks ago I tried to be clever and cut the intake diameter of the K&N Filter open to approx 3x the original size. I expected some effect, but not that it would feel like 34hp and would only rev to approx 7500 (200m above sea level) or 7000 (1000m above sea level).
So I used some tape to reduce the intake to approx the original size, worked well again.

Just ordered pointy cams to mod my engine the next time I check my valve clearance

Is anyone riding a similar combination and able to tell me about his jetting, needle, needle-position etc?

I'm gonna do some research, but since English isn't my first language, some hints might be useful

Thanks guys!

155 ish on mikuni sizes I would guess (dynojet would be bigger number). Stock needle and position to start. Check pilot is 17.5, USA models get 15 pilot, not sure about others.
