So after running up many jet sizes and then going back down, I've got my bike running pretty well. I've got the mixture screws like 3.25 turns out (where the bike always seems to like them despite the combination of jets I've tried) and I've been listening for backfire popping when decelerating to tell if I'm running too lean. The mixture screws were adjusted until the popping stopped, but when I look at the plugs, they aren't that optimal light brown they should be, they are dark around the rim. It seems I'm running too rich but if I turn in the screws .25 the popping starts. My question is this, is it ok to have some popping on deceleration? Is it really lean or is it just the setup I've got:
