A lot of boogered mix screws lately... if it ain't broke, don't fix it...
Try just raising your idle speed a bit... that will often help with decel backfires...

either take it to a machine chop or live with it.
boogered screws and noobs don't mix.

I can't say exactly a model of the carburetor . it is very similar to mine. but I don't know your model...
but to win backfires, if you can do such as air filter more dense than stock . then the air fuel mixture will be more rich.

Yeah, it's not bigtwin, but it is the best half of it
