Carb help!!!

I have a 1977 KZ 1000 with as far as I know stock engine but has a 4 into header and emigo pod filters(didnt come with any filters had to put something on) the carbs are jetted at 22.5 mains 117.5 pilots and I think the needles at the 3rd clip. had the bike out on wed afternoon in high wind the carb or carbs were doing alot of poping sounded like it was mostle coming from the left side. Any ideas for tweeking them in to shape friday the 13th comming fast can't miss it. Thanks for any help!!:S

Wizz...have You checked Your valve clearances?
Have You synchronized the carbs,or at least tried adjusting the air mixture screws?
Hows Your ignition timing?
How are the points and the timing advance mechanism?

And just for the record,if Your bike is a 77,it's not an A2,it's an A1;)

Please recheck your jetting. More likely #22.5 pilot jets and #117.5 mains. Keep the jet needles clipped to 3rd slot and use some #17.5 pilot jets and #117.5 mains should be OK.

Sorry was tired when I posted last night. I have 122.5 mains and 17.5 pilots. The timing sems to be ok,don't have a timming light,haven't checked valves, synchronized the carbs last fall,and adjusted everything as best as I know how. :side:
