Generally it's lean in transition with either jetting or since you tried two carbs it could be an intake leak too. There is also a mod that can be done the carb to stop this, but damned if I can remember what it is, and whether the mod was for this particular problem/ carb combo. The fact that it's shovel means nothing in itself when it comes to lean hesitation and pop. There is some mention of hesitation caused from a part incorrectly installed.

poping
went and checked that it is not a cv
mine i do belive is a keian
i also talked to the person at work and this is what he told me
there was an article in easy rider about pre emission carbs
that the jet is pointed into the carb the wrong way
he was not real sure on the whole article. but it came down to the frount
cycl will lean out and pop and the rear will get to much fuel
anyone know about this
