I did my first 1000 miles like this ... but it did pop a lot on decel. I'd suggest getting an aircleaner and EFI pack of some description but you can run it OK without ... it runs noticeably better with them. Mat

Same here. I just did Cycleshack slips and only get popping on decel. I'm waiting for the funds for a Thundermax A/T and K&N filter before I get my Short Shots. Wanna do it all at once this time.

I also have about 750 mile on just a pipe change pops on decel but not all the time.

Of course I have now bit the bullet and am going with a full stage 1 upgrade. That will require some fuel management!

Have any popping problems Theeboy? I'm really chomping at the bit to do the shortshots myself but don't want to end up with the same issue I got with my slips. It would be nice to richen her up a little bit to, hence the Thundermax.

I hate being so impatient.............
