    i was asking if there is a noticeable difference with jetted carb and free flowing air filter

    Believe it or not intakes are "tuned" and messing with the intake can mess up the intake airflow (resonance) at various rpms and cause the bike to run too lean or too rich. But hey, it's your bike.

    Pull the spark plugs and check them for burn than re-jet if necessary, you want to see the burn not listen for it.
