You want to run leaner at higher altitudes, due to the decreased amount of oxygen as you ascend. California bikes come jetted leaner, so maybe start with the smaller of the two jet sizes for each jet (pilot and main).
4200' isn't that much of a difference, so you should have no issues. Maybe if you lived in Mammoth at 8000' would be an issue.
