Why does my bike backfire between shifts? The baffle is out, does this matter? I'ts a 1976 KZ900 w/ a 1000cc motor. I just got the bike and don't know any of it's history....looks good though.B)

It sure might matter.
Backfiring is a condition of lean-ness. You'd better do all the regular checks to find out why you're running lean...
