However, try turning the handle bars to the opposite side you're working on. It moves the tie rod way out of the way and gives you room to turn the pipe in any which direction.

Your motor would barely rev on big bore shearers. I'm in Michigan and have CPI's, Shearers, BB Shearers, GRR Suicides, and CT inframe drag pipes you could try.
No R1's in that pic. CPI OOF's, Big bore Shearers, Toomeys, and the CT inframe Drag pipes are on the bike. You got the best set of shearers I've owned, and the Rockets went to Whitbread. I do have a set of GRR Suicide inframes at the chromer though.
For now... But since you jinxed it, it's only a matter of time before cam is snorting lines of Vicodin off Chinese midget titties in the dyno cell, and partying deposits away in gay clubs. Thanks ya fuck!
Sounds like the basics have been mentioned. However, did you need to wrestle the air box in? It's possible you cracked an intake boot and have an air leak and that is what's causing the lean hang on idle. The switch you made should definitely not be idling high unless carbs were adjusted or a cable is out of place. If all that's good, look in to the air leak.
