I get a poof on shutdown and the rumbles on decel, with kerpows when it goes down to between 3,000-3,200 rpm. This RPM range is almost guaranteed to create a kerpow, not above and not below that. I don't know why it is like that. At night you can see blue flames coming out of the pipe in unison with the rumbling, and when the ~3,000 rpm kerpow occurs, there's a blue flame coming out about 6 inches long. It constantly changes during the day on what it does. I can have days where it doesn't kerpow at all, no matter what. Next day it's back with a vengance. Some days there's not even the poof on shutdown. And I didn't change anything at all.
check for loose header bolts or muffler clamp.
if you have something other than the stock muff, it may be just to open to eliminate the pow's.

Only backfires everytime I use the killswitch...loud as can be. Kinda embarassing, but i've learned that stalling it, it won't backfire. Any thoughts on that? By the way, mines an 86 with just over 29000 miles
try fattening up the idle mixture a little. 1/8 turn at a time. If it takes more than a 1/4 turn from a smooth idle setting as instructed by lancer, then your idle speed may need to be set higher.
I have an '88 carb on a '02 engine. 1st shutdown sounded just like a high powered rifle. I had the whole block come out looking, I nearly fell over laughing and would dropped the bike on top of me.

Are there any diagrams around to show exactly where the mixture screw is?
