That would be a good place to start for jets, but jetting is entirely dependant on the condition of, and the running requirements of a particular jetting. No 2 bikes are the same unless they are in identicle new perfect condition.
You should probly get a couple sizes above and below for Main Jets. The pilot 1 size up is fine.
You can play with the needle clip position to find the best power at exactly 1/2 throttle.
Remember: Jetting/Jet testing is entirely dependant on throttle position, not speed and very little by rpms.
