I put my stock carb back on my x18 for now with a modded exhaust. What does the needle need to be on the carb (5 cuts)? Ive tried and tried to get the bogging to go away but cant.

turn the air and gas mix 2.5 out and see if that helps

it sounds like you need to clean the carb and cheak your fuel filter.sometimes the fuel line will start to break down or your gas is old or is just trash in your gas that will clog the carb

take your carb off and take the bottom off the carb the four screws and clean it out with parts cleaner or soak it in gas then get a flat head and take the jet off and spray some cleaner up in there and if you got a air gun it helps to air the hole carb out then put it all back.
