detonation in airbox.
 

Occasionally at traffic lights. my vtr1000 would have a loud pop under the tank. mostly at cold engine temp. it will happen if i am revving the bike without load. (clutch in) I ve seal up one hole on the slide. adjust the tps to 540 ohm. carbs are balanced.
any experience with this?

Known as a carb fart...

Yes id bet every VTR ever produced has done that.

MINE will only do it if the carbs are way out of sync or I have a vac leak (lost one of my sync line plugs once)

Mine is so bad it blew he crank vent hose out. Ok. I m guilty of not clipping it well.
