Try adjusting your low jet mixture screw... screwing it IN leans it out, screwing it OUT richens the mixture. You may not have a big enough low jet to even get the bike RUNNING. The main doesn't even come into play until you''re pretty much at WOT. A good way to test this is by spraying some starter fluid into the carb, see if it starts. If it does, you know your not getting enough fuel...

If it DOESN'T start, you can rule out fuel. Starter Fluid/Brake Cleaner is the SIMPLEST "test" for a non-start condition, that YOU think is fuel. IMO
