alot of times you dont even need to re-jet the carb....most of the time a turn of the air/fuel screw works perfect...does it bog real bad or blow out black smoke....?

You will cure all your problems w/ this kit.........way better than re-jetting...but, now that you re-jetted, you'ld have to put your stock jet back in.

back firing and popping is a sign of a lean mixture but alot of bikes do this when you let off the gas (cars too) ...spark plug will tell you.....pull your plug, it will be light in color if its lean
