Doe it look to be running lean from the spark plug? I just don't know which area of the throttle position I need to make rich as it runs from idle to full throttle really good.

After a 30 minute ride the bike temperature from the cylinder heads is about 300 degrees. Is this bike running to hot or is that a normal temperature?

I just finished an engine rebuild and got the bike running through idle to full rev with no problems. One thing I am having an issue with is on deaccerlation I get tons of popping. The plugs don't look lean or rich but will post a pic to show the group.
I am running Mikuni vm30 with filters...
Just checked and getting full throttle. Both carbs when full throttle the slides are not visible through intake, they go beyond the bore.

I am getting a GoPro from a friend and will show how it sounds and runs through the gears for you guys. Not sure what to do about it running rich. If I should go down on the main one size.

Thanks. I did warm it up and got it to about 8K but haven't pushed it really beyond that as it seems so high in the revs. Plug chop shows it being pretty rich so wondering if I should go down on the main jets or just leave it. There was a bit of oil when I checked the plugs, not sure if that...
