My gut feel is its the valves, my clearances are fine but i am about ready to take to the shop for a leak down test, if the vaves are seating correctly there should not be any backfiring through the airfilter, mine is this means the inlet valves are not correctly seated and allowing the back firing to take place while trying to start, i will post up the results in a week after i get the bike back.

Yeah let me know how that goes. My bike doesn't seem to be backfiring much anymore and actually starting really well, just not as good when it's been running for awhile and engine hot. I still need to do a TPS Reset, and if anybody knows how to do that, let me know!
Thanks again,
