How much should my jet change for winter?

i bump my main up from a 155 to a 162 when the temps get below 40 degrees F.
and anything below 30, is too cold for me to ride in. but if i did i'd prolly go one size larger again, just to be safe
but heres what the manual says for stock carb, with oil injection still connected...........

Did you rejet when you took lid off? If not you might already be lean, and with the cold it will probably go boom.
of course a plug chop for each jet, at whatever temps will tell the real story
but i'm also wondering if the manual suggested jetting changes for cold weather are a little lean, as that is with the stock oil injection connected and working, which reportedly injects at 20:1 ?????
so there will be an abundance of spare oil laying in the cases at all times ???? and a constant flow of oil, no matter what jet is used
during cold weather i'd say oil is the main concern, not fuel for cooling as the cold temps will negate alot of that ????
all just thoughts to ponder ????

Well oil-injector was first thing I took off, so no worries, stock jet is 230 right? Should I try a 250 and leave everything else alone?
Well a few buddies and me ride every single weekend, so we pull through haha. This weekend im gonna plug chop with a few plugs. What jet's do you think i should jet like every jet between 240 and 260
If it were me id go atleast 2 sizes bigger on the main and immedaitely do a plug chop to see where you are.
Better safe than sorry in my opinion.Especially if the weather is like here where it could be 50 in the day and 25 at night thats a big drop.
But ill admit anything below 50 and im not riding so if you and your buddies ride every weekend in the cold kudos to you sir!I:I
Yeah, every weekend haha. So since i was just informed they go by 10's i guess i'll start a 260 and hopefully only have to go down 1
