Same symptoms? idles fine, won't rev?
You stopped looking too soon.
How far did you dismantle? Dismantle the carb again. properly.
If that doesn't change anything, swap carbs.
Does anyone know of the XV250 engine uses a waste spark?

Swap carbs front and rear. Elimination.

Dushy, I forgive your bike for last night. Hopefully the next time we meet it will be on better terms! (My hand is much better today after a good ice-packing.)
