This airbox nonsense does my head in

I installed the larger of those two ring holes in position 1, this allowed me to get it down to a 120 main jet which is what I was aiming for, mix looked good with light brown plugs.

Happy with that I rode home and moved it to the more permanent position 2 figuring I'd fettle it a bit more tomorrow.

But instead I had to take the bike out again, jumped on started riding, cracked the throttle and it bogs down really bad, plug chop shows the plug to be as black as a chimney sweeps sack.

Why's moving it from one end of the schnozzel to the other made such a f#cking massive difference? Does that make any sense at all or is summat else most likely f#cked?
