So I rode the bike to a car show today when I started the bike to leave while working the throttle to warm it up. I was getting a lot of backfires through the carb I know it’s not running lean because I checked plugs the day before. Also synced the carbs yesterday so got home checked the points and all checked out good so I went to check timing have a Hughes Pma no marks on it. I brought it to tdc and made a mark so that I could check timing turns out the left cyl was advanced more then the right so fixed that. Rode it down the road and now it’s backfiring on decel if I let the bike slow me down I have the ya mamma exhaust which has no baffles. And I’ve got the carb mixture screws a half turn out on the round slide carbs
