You could take your carburetors off, drain the gas and unscrew a pilot jet and read the number on the side and look at a main jet as the number is stamped on the top. Your bike came with #15 pilot jets from the factory. A larger pilot jet would indicate rejetting has been done. Your bike's main jets will be anywhere from #92.5 to #102.5 stock so a larger than #102.5 main jet would mean your bike has been rejetted. If you have a feel for how a bike is supposed to run, you could also tell from the performance if it is jetted properly. Does the bike accelerate smoothly to redline?

Yeah I am having some issue from dead stop to going but once you get going its seems to be ok. Around 4-5grand is where it really seems to come alive and pulls like a bat out of hell. I am going to get the carbs synched and adjusted soon. I hope this helps with the take off.
