    When does it backfire? On startup, when applying throttle, deceleration? Need to know to help diagnose.

      ok

      the bike does back fire on when I hold my speed (80 km/h at 4000rpm) then you can heard a little pow pow when back firing

      just to let you know I didn't try to play with the mixture ( i think)

      if I have turn the screws for air on the 4 carb.like the pic.

      is my mixture is now bad?

      if yes how can I correct that ?

        Please check out my post about carb leaks I just posted. Are you sure the air box is on totally sealed?

          Sounds like a lean condition either due to air leaks or lean pilot air screw adjustment. Do you have stock exhaust pipes? Airbox? Rejetted carbs?

              Counter clockwise if you're trying to reduce a lean condition.

              The bike probably is running lean if the jetting is stock and 4-1 pipe was added.

                I talk with some guys at work and everyone says to do not touch my air screw cause I can burn my piston ( hot point)

                they suggest me to go up in my pilot jet to have more gaz.

                now I checked my air screw and I give 1 1/8 on each, do you think it's good ?
