Welcome to the forum! Usually popping back is a lean condition(you can check the plug to see if it's lean) You can try raising the carb needle and see if it helps,plus at times the jets in the kits are still not rich enough. If you can find a dealer that stocks Mikuni jets you can get several sizes larger than the stock 110 main. DG marks their own jets and unless you have a jet gauge,hard to tell what the actual jet size is. Plus have you had the valve clearance checked? This is a shim under bucket system and bad about having to keep em checked regularly or they will tighten up and run like crap. OPT
