Jetting advise needed

Would need some help here.
I was running my KZ1100R with the stock 4/2 exhaust and stock airbox. Was running fine.
I've install a 4/1 Kerker KR with the 2.5" competition baffle and now I have some miss after 6,000 rpm. By the way, that baffle is very very loud!
I've just order a 2" baffle which should less loud and will arrived in a few weeks.
I have also a set of Emgo pods that will be installing shortly to complete the set up.
So, with the pods + Kerker 2", which jet size should I get to resolve the problem at high revs?
In the mean time, can I ride the bike beeing carefull not to go over 6,000 rpm?
Thanks in advance,
Joce

I vote for being careful since you are probably running too lean now. Install the pods and you will probably be MUCH too lean and it won't run worth crap. BTW, running lean can be dangerous because of burning pistons.
