It's better to have your carb adjusted for running well, rather than what happens when you shut off...

It completely eliminated the shutdown pop for me and that was when it had the factory jets. Even with richer jets now it still doesn't make any shutdown noise.

This.

Isn't tuning the carb a "work-around?"

No, tuning the carb to eliminate pops would be a work around which is why I stated tune the carb to it's best setting, which simply means the setting that give the highest idle speed, as per Lancer's tuning instructions. I found that when the carb was set to give the best running performance that the shutdown pop disappeared by itself. Others may have different experiences due to local conditions but in my case the shutdown pop elimination was a side effect of tuning the carb correctly.

I agree with what you suggest: readjusting the carb., but ...

these bikes were "tuned" to run lean from the factory, and that is why the plug covering the idle mixture screw. They don't want us to "tune" the carb. So...it would be considered a "work-around" to them.

However, go for tuning - that's what I did, and I will, in the near future, actually raise the jet needle a tad to see if I can get better running in the lower 1/8th of throttle.
