according to the dealer they replaced the needle jets the fuel filter the oil filter the spark plugs and did a complete carb rebuild they also told me that the bike had water in the engine but they cleaned it out and should be driving fine
they told me that the bike should be junked if the bike is running like that because its something internal and cant be fixed but i jsut bought the bike in march and dont want to get ride of it

If all they replaced were the needle jets(float needles? or main jets?), then they didn't do a complete rebuild. That would require all new o-rings and all new jets. I'll bet they didn't clean them very well either.
