SuperTrapp ????
Of all you SuperTrapp owners out there, How often to you disassemble to clean your disks of carbon? Eventually it will pack in and change the amount of flow.... Just curious. I do mine every off season. I have 2 bikes so i only put about 2500 miles on each annually.....

Even better would be to add a few more discs. Carbon collecting after a short amount of use indicates a rich riding condition and adding more discs would help to lean it out a bit more.

I agree with the others, if you have a real carbon build up problem, you are running rich. A dyno tune is best unless of course you own a 2017 or newer bike, then putting a fuel device on it creates more problems with warranty. The "backyard" tune may help to some degree if you don't want to commit to a possible warranty issue. I run a V&H Propipe head pipe with a Fuel Moto E Series disc muffler.

Thanx for all the replies.... The thing is Dyno tuning is all I've ever done.... I have a very built 96" Evo that's been tuned for power and not AFR. So it is going to run a little rich. I thought most builds like to run around 13.8 to optimize power hence a little rich AFR...

A dyno will identify if an engine benefits from being a little rich, AFR is only a guide or datum for further adjustment, if appropriate. I've had my carbed Glide dyno-tuned twice and the AFR varies a little throughout the rev range, but the torque curve is great!
