yes mate thats right,but on the second gen bandit with the pair system its normal to have a very slight popping from cold I did confirm this yesterday with a lad I know who is a suzuki technician if you get rid of the standatd zorst,then its best to have the carbs sync,pilot screws adusted just to be on the safe side -

Ive had a tinker with the bike this morning as said there was a slight popping/like blowing back through the carbs on me bike from cold start it would stay there till the bike was running hot I know my bike has had some carb work,its on a service sheet I got with the bike first off I checked the pilot screws,no4 carb was around 4 turns out no3 around 2.5 no2 around 3 no1 around 3 so ive followed what was put in that post screwed all the pilot screws in till slightly seated turned them all out 3 turns,run the bike till it got hot very hot then just slightley adjusted them all again and its worked theres no popping through the carbs what so ever -

ive noticed on my bike when cold,I get like a little popping noise from the carbs only when its cold,soon as it warms up it goes so after searching google,I came across this apparently its normal on my model,but thought I would post this as it gives some good info,on how to set the pilot screws http://forums.banditalley.net/index.php?action=printpage;topic=12935.0
