ok, my kdx125sr has a main jet #145 and a air jet #45 on the catalog it says i can go as low as 110 and 38 i have waaayyyy to much spooge on my bike and really really need to lean it, since i use it on the street and it gets all my shirts full of spots on the back and that sucks, so i guess i can go this low cause it says on the catalog, what do you guys think??

That's not the correct approach; putting in the smallest jets offered cuz it says so in 'the catalog'.

Determine the correct main size first. About the only way to do that (reasonably) is to do a WOT plug chop and look at the plug.

Your air jet (or pilot jet or any slow circuit jet) will be chosen based on throttle response.

JUST because you have a spooge problem certainly does not mean you are safe to go as lean as you can.

Good way to stick your bike.

I understood the question. Answered it already.

re: 'its not gonna kill the bike right???'

It may well do just that.
