It runs okay but a lot of deceleration popping coming from the exhuast . And some backfire thru carb . Bike I'd deff rideable but the poping makes me uneasy.

Here's what I have. The Yost kit, blue needle with clip in the middle, 46 slow, 195 main and the mixture screw is like 2 1/2 turns. Stock ignition. No decel pop and have an average of 48 mpg. Get the 46 pilot here https://cv-performance.com/jets

Before you swap jets open the mixture screw another 1/4-1/2 turn. From idle when warm and you rev it does it rev smooth or does it cough?
