Don't quote me here, because I run a 28mm Keihin PWK, but I believe the twist throttle cable designed to work with this carburetor will also fit the OKO. Motion Pro and Vito's both offer them.

As for your jetting, I'd start around a 150 main with the needle in the center during this cold weather. See how the engine likes it. A 150 will probably run a bit rich and need to be dropped a few sizes, but its much better start safe and not wind up sorry. If you cannot obtain a good idle with the airscrew open at least 1/2 turn, you'll need go up one size on the pilot jet as well. Do your plug chops and tune from there. See sticky on plug chops.

a 250 ? wont that be too big i have a 260 in my stock 26 now and i dont really ride it much in the winter so i'm lookiing for a jet size for warm weather
 
Keihin doesn't make a 260 main. He likely meant 150.
But I would start with at least a 160 main.
 
if that is true then def start at a 260 or higher u gotta jet up in cold weather and it desnt matrter if u ride very much or not in winter just one ride with it lean and it could blow up

you cant put a 260 in a 30mm carb????? and no my engine dident blow up, my clutch did which made the kick start stuck. my top end looked fine. start with a 150 and do a plug chop i actually have this carb i know what jets you need.
