JUST INSTALLED A WHITE BROTHERS E-SERIES PRO MEG EHAUST. STARTED THE QUAD UP AND LET IT IDLE AND THE HEAD PIPES TURNED CHERRY RED IN COLOR. WHEN YOU RIDE THE PIPES COOL DOWN. SHOULD I ADJUST THE CLIP ON THE NEEDLE AND GET A BIGGER PILOT JET OR WHAT IS THE PROBLEM?

go a size bigger on the main jet.... and maybe one notch down on the needle....yea down I think to gives it more gas....you're just runnin too lean

Changing the main jet and needle position will not cure your lean idle. Put in a 42 pilot jet and you should be alright.
