It means that you have adjusted the size of the jets in the carb to allow the proper amount of fuel flow.

Most of the time 2 strokes come from the factory jetted too rich. They do this for several reasons, but mainly because it's impossible to jet a bike properly for all conditions. They may also do it as a way to prevent you from blowing it up as soon as you get it, because it's too lean.

I've heard that 4 strokes are usually jetted a bit leaner than they might need to be from the factory, for emissions purposes. 4 strokes aren't lubed thru the fuel, so they don't tend to blow up from being jetted improperly.

There are some really great resources on here that can teach you how to jet your bike properly, just do a search for Jetting.
