Here's a can of worms... hard to search for this very specific topic.
I'm using a TM34 on my latest XS build ( see "Hodaka tank") in combination with a custom 1 into 2 manifold. Absolutely rips from idle to WOT, but in certain coast down closed throttle decel situations under 30mph with little engine braking- things get a bit lurchy. I have a '92 Ducati 750ss with CV flatslides and 5" runners that has similar behavior.
My guess is this is due to lack of velocity in intake air stream and fuel drops out of suspension causing pooling of droplets and sporadic burn.
An interesting related note is that with this custom intake the first 2" closest to the carb is actually chilled in operation... Thermodynamics.... I have a couple ideas for dealing with that as it may be contributing to this minor issue.
Any expert tuners want to chime in? Not sure there's any easy fix...
