Engine popping

[jazzpaintball]

hey guys, hello again for those who remember me, whoo hoo for being back in college.

Anyway, I finally had a decent day about a week ago so i fired my silver rocket up and did a light run. I noticed something that I did not notice as much, engine popping, especially during heavy decel/engine breaking. I have a feeling this is from the engine running lean due to the fact that i have scorps on the back end. I am worried about the engine's longevity. it is an 05 with only 2300 miles on it (cant ride it when in the other half of the world, lol) and i want to make sure i can keep by bike healthy for years to come.

What do you guys think, and any remedies i can do beyond the power commander/juice box?
Thanks for your help.

I wouldn't worry.
Mines got Scorps and pops on the overrun.
My KTM Duke 2 also had twin Scorpions from new and racked up over twenty thousand miles without a glitch.
My 610 Husky also had an aftermarket can and was also a 'popper'

Personally I love that sound;

BTW, if u install the new cans recently. Loosen exhaust clamps and retighten to correct torque.
