Is it truly backfiring ( through the carb ) or is it afterfiring(through the muffler)? Did you happen to adjust the valves?( If you followed the Clymer's book ,and rotated the motor cw to TDC ,this is incorrect ,the motor should be turned ccw /or the same way the wheels turn when viewed from the left side of the bike,your valves may not be fully closing). How many wires did you hook to the new starter switch and in what positions and where did you run them to? And more importantly ,why did you change from the stock switch? Seeing you still have the decomp ,timer ,headlight relay that turns off during starting,and you have to bypass the starter and maybe the kill switch ,all complicates installing the newer switch.There is also a wire from the starting circuit that runs to the ignitor to signal it to retard the timing at startup ,if it's not functioning that might cause backfiring,as the sparkplug will be firing to early. If I were you I'd go back to the stock switch and wiring ,as removing your hand from the bars to use this type switch reduces steering control and use of the front brake and throttle ,I see no advantages.
