this jet-size thing is beginning to get on my nerves...
it is very simple:
if you want to find the jet-size and needle position for a perfect setup for YOUR bike, forget what others are telling you that they are driving, you just can't compare it.
Every engine varies a bit, people live at different areas with different climates, different hight, moisture and such, not to mention different pipes, air-filters, gasoline-quality, age of the engine.....
that all makes little differences that can easily add up to very different carb-setups.
The best you can do is finding out yourself.
Read something about carb-setups and how to do it, it's all not that hard.
So simply try out some setups and choose the best you've found. You will most definetly be closer to the truth than simply copying the setup of others (apart from that ask 3 guys you'll get 4 different answers anyway).
