I should have been cleare. Measure the inside diameter of the carb where it goes into the manifold/boot. That and a pic will help identify it whether stock or other.

Maybe not ,but just how much more damage could you have done to the piston and rings.
The advice given on BF is for your benefit, leak test before you destroy the engine.
Fit a filter, check the float level, set the idle as per specs.
Post up your mods and jetting.
Advice is available on jetting ballpark.
Plug chop to confirm.
The engine will now perform well, providing you have still got good compression from a partially cooked piston.
it is stock yes, also missing overflow tube and the locking tab that helps hold the top screw cap on. I would get that cuz even with it they have been know to come loose.Have you checked it to see if it is loose? 
THE cylinder is a different color? Is it painted

and without that locking tab speedy mentioned the carb cap might come loose and cause a air leak that cannot be found with a leak testit is stock yes, also missing overflow tube and the locking tab that helps hold the top screw cap on.

again cylinder looks aftermarket yet the head does not lol
Green reed gasket is not stock either,I hope your base gasket is not green/blue?
Oem/or cometic base gaskets are recommended only

yeah those paper gaskets are bad news and i know what your saying about the cylinder but it has all of the normal casting marks on it
and i know what your saying about the cylinder but it has all of the normal casting marks on ityea there's a plug on the oil inject, i ordered the Athena P400485850205 Complete Engine Gasket Kit. I keep forgetting to unplug all the tors i want to just clean up the harness as i have no headlight or taillight.
any idea where i can get the locking tab?
i think it's a high output stator they had a 60w or so fog light on the front but the bulb was burnt out

I can look in my pile of stock carb parts an see if I got one, I think I got 3 carbs in pieces an a bunch of misc carb parts.
Did you get crank main seals with the gasket set? Those are important Take the Athena base gasket an throw it away cause its likely a blue or green paper gasket, go buy a OEM one
i tryed linking you to this pg earlier but they said they were updating it or summin but here it is or at least idea on how much it is if you want to buy from here.

I understand not having the extra money for this stuff, but not having the money to buy a leak tester or a good gasket set is a lot more desirable than not having the money to do a rebuild because you didn't take heed with this stuff.
I've been in a financial nightmare for the past several weeks. It started the day after I bought a set of shocks from a guy on here. After some very hard riding, I noticed that I'd broken my lower spring on the triples. I didn't notice it while riding because of the nature of the break, which meant that I could have continued to ride, but I chose not to so that I could avoid further damage. I'd rather stay off of it until I have the $450 to have the shocks redone than I had ride it once more and risk having to spend $900 on a set of new shocks.
You're in a similar situation, and I know first-hand that it sucks.

doing it right means doing it once.
doing it cheap means doing it more (which costs more in the end)
