Chili,
The adjustment to the valves should not cause popping on decel, (unless it was way out ) The only thing i can think of is possibly a vacuum line didnt get plugged back in when the reassembled your bike, I would check the lines at the back of the airbox. and on the reed valve system at the top of the heads.
Thanks for writing,
Adam
