Carb cough help

I have a 2004 883 that has the 1200 kit in it along with screaming eagle jugs, heads, carb kit. Bassani pipes. My problem is when sitting still it will cough out of the carb and die. It also coughs sometimes while running down the road. This is extremly annoying. What do i do to stop it? Thanks in advance.

The pilot jet is too lean.
Increase it until it stops.
