I got a nice 84 200s the other day and need to get the correct jets in the carb. I now the main is supposed to be a 100 but no manual mentions the pilot jet size. Clymer even says its pressed in and not removable (its not). It came with a 35 pilot and a 85 main. ran like crap too.

The 35 is the correct pilot jet.

I had a 200s carb, it had a 98 main jet, but yeah the clymer says the pilot jet is pressed in, i noticed that it said that about the 185 carb, and i have about 4 carbs, and none of them are pressed in, so they are obviously wrong about that

Thanks for the info. The needle was also some aftermarket piece of crap, only had one slot for the clip, not 5 like the stock needle. I hit 2 Honda shops on Sat, looking for the correct needle and main jet. First place had nothing, 2nd place had a replacement oem needle kit and a 102 main jet (no 100). Went with those and it runs a lot better. The 35 pilot that was in it had the screwdriver slots bent up/wallowed out, that may be affecting my idle (couldn't find a new one of those). Took a good 20 minutes of screwing with the pilot screw to get it to idle evenly. Has anybody ever used the Moose carb rebuild kits that Dennis Kirk sells?
