    popping with choke on!

    First of all my bike runs great But I have a little popping when the choke is wide open and thats the only time it does it.Could this be a lean condition or possibly a bad exhaust gasket?Also if I downshift with high rpms going I will get a small pop but only once though.I get great gas mileage and have not done anything to the carbs but sync them.No intake leaks at all (new everything) and it idles exellent.Any answers or thoughts would be appreciated!

    Mine also pops with the choke on full but resides when I back it off. My theory is that it is rich with choke and it is popping unburnt fuel. I also pop a little on decal but I blame this on a Kerker 4-1 pipe.

      My bike pops a little on full choke as well, but I'm not going to worry about it since once its warmed up it runs good (finally). For me its helped to just give it a little less choke when starting (about 2/3 - 3/4) and back it off right away. I only need choke in this warm weather for about 15 seconds or so.

      A little pop on a long decel is probably no big deal as well.

        i think most 4 into ones do that. casue of the rich fuel mixture they get. and most of the times popping is left over burn fuel. Both bikes, gs 750 and gs 1100 with four into ones now pop. Another thing I notice they do with those setups on is they need more choke too start up on the first throw off the key.
