back firing and popping out breather

i have an 03 flht with 16000 miles on it, i just installed a set of vance and hines true duals and put d and d slip ons on it, it has a stage 1 breather kit installed. im having trouble with it popping out the breather at 2000 rpms. found a bad rear injector replaced it and it ran good for 60 miles. back to the same problem. replaced the intake gaskets with s&s gaskets and it ran great for 200 miles, now back to the same problem. it also snaps and cracks out the rear cylinder exhaust pipe. does any have suggestions? seems to be common ground in the intake area. when work is done it runs good for a while then we go back to the original problem. thanks to all, this is a great forum....
 
Did you install the Harley air cleaner?Did you accomodate the additional air by race tuner,powercommander or some type of FI mod?
 
we installed a 1550 stage 1 down load in to help richin up. it ran great but after 60 miles went back to the same problem.
 
could it be the heat sensor that is attached to the front cylinder?

also once the bike goes into its fit it remains there, its not something that comes and goes,,,, appreciate all the info.
 
Ensure your exhaust is correctly sealed and tight.

Did you install new exhaust gaskets at the flanges?
