It would be a good idea to pull all your cam plugs out clean them with soapy water, rinse, dry. Use some acetone on a clean rag to remove the oil from the head locations so their nice and clean and use some RTV silicone sealant on the saddle part of the rubber (where it contacts the head) reinstall them and install your valve cover right away, this will help hold them in place untill the RTV cures.

The reason they pop out is usually crankcase pressure, but this normally happens reving to high rpm. Do you have an external crankcase breather? It may be partially plugged or clogged.... or the hose may be pinched.

Damm! I love that green you picked for you bike.
