The needles will make a big difference. the bike is lean from the get go, but pipes and K&N and snorkel removed will make it very lean in the mids. I''ll make a prediction that when you pop those needles in you're gonna be in for a very pleasent suprise. I didn't touch my needles till after i did what you did and the difference just shimming them was considerable. I've since messed with the jetting a good bit and i always find it's the needles where all the changes seem to happen.
