I wouldn't bother with the pilot jet until you have the Raptor installed or you'll end up chasing your tail.

Start by checking the header bolts and the header / muffler connection.
Leaks make backfires



I have checked it before but I will do a double check

Thanks for the heads up. I didn't even think about that. I'm about 5 months into riding so I'm definitely still learning what and what not to do

Btw when refilling my gas tank I accidentally spilled onto the bike engine area. Any major problems that I could have caused?

Turn the key off. Leave the kill switch for later, After reaching for the key becomes second nature.

Or, just never use the kill switch ... unless you're throttle sticks, or you drop the bike!

Was able to ride bike today on way to work with raptor petcock in place and bike felt good and backfire went to a minimal just a few times shifting from 2nd to 3rd. The only issue I felt was when I was cruising and holding throttle steady at about 20mph in the parking lot the bike would sputter don't know what that could be? Also haven't needed to use the choke to start the bike after sitting overnight, also don't know if that is good or bad? Bike info- 2017 Ls650 just hit 1,000 miles with a Jardine slip on. Main jet is currently at #155 and pilot at stock 52.5 with white spacer still in

If you have added a fuel filter, ditch it.

What gear at twenty? That's revved up fair first or kinda dogging second, if it's not level. Much uphill at twenty in second is harsh.
