Ok, I have a one off exhaust(free flowing). Bike runs great, but when I let out of the gas(no clutch)I get a few pops here and there. Sounds kinda like a lean condition. My question is, is this because of the different jetting between the 2 carbs? Should I worry about it?

First of all is the pair disabled. This will cause popping with aftemarket cans.
Secondly the popping on decel is a lean condition. The generally means that the bike is way lean. This is caused because both cards are running lean.

A 1000cc V-twin is going to have a couple pops every now and then, with or without pair, it's just the character of the bike and not a bad thing at all. Of course, you can do everything DD just reccomended and probably take care of 95% of any pop the bike has, but beyond that, as long as it's not a consistent carb fart (vice exhaust hiccup), you'll be fine. Some of us even like it

Sure, don't touch the clutch ,just hit the off switch, wrap the throttle a couple of times then cut the switch back on(do all of this as fast as possible), makes for a nice flame. I don't condon this, this can blow the cards out of the boots.

Not sure about the pairs system, the bike was set up when I bought it. I have a dyno sheet showing in the neighborhood of 118hp. However it was set up in Nebraska and I'm in Ms.

ok, sorry new to these bikes. It has the two brother's block off plates, I assume this is means that the pairs system has been removed. I should mention that the muffler is only about 10 or 11 inches long.
