2002 deuce won’t idle

I’ve done everything I can think of. Took the carb apart and cleaned/rebuilt it. Changed plugs. Adjusted throttle cables and idle screw - even with it all the way in, the bike won’t idle.

There is a backfire of sorts (more of a puffing than a backfire) intermittently spitting from the carb. I’ve uploaded a video to YouTube. Any ideas or suggestions of what I can look for or what it could be?

My old evo acted like that when the hall unit was failing.
