sounds like it might be a little bit lean up top... try 1 size bigger on the main jet.

My HPD exhaust will pop sometimes if I let it wind out and then quickly let off the gas. From what I was able to gather, it is just the nature of a more open exhaust. I was running a 160 main jet with the pilot screw 2 turns out (?). Everything else was left stock. I now have the HPD air box mod that that has changed. But HPD did not recommend doing anything with the pilot jet or needle for my application. I can usually get betweeen 40-50 miles on a tank, depending on how I am riding.
