So I haven't been riding as much as I used to. Today I took my bike out and noticed its revving was louder and banged a lot. I thought at first my SBP exhaust had developed a leak, but it could be the NT carb clogging. I ran it at least once ever two weeks though. It does appear to be 4 stroking a lot. Any ideas?

I'd clean the carb and check the air filter. Then maybe re jet.

You're going to have to be more specific and define "banging". We're not sure what you mean.
If you're having to clean the carburetor you might want to consider installing an in-line fuel filter.
As for "four stroking" my first question is how many miles does the engine have on it?

By 4-stroking I think it's giving you a hint......the bike wants a new 4-stroke engine for Christmas!

Happy Holidays!!!
