Default Backfire

Well here i am again.I'll refrase it.I have a 2003 WR 450f,great bike.I changed the pipe to an "FMF" because I like the sound and don t like my bike sounding like a sewing machine.I've adjusted the carb to run smooth and run 94 octane but still getting some backfire.Any ideas?My mechanic says he should rejet it some what which will cost me $100.00.Does this sound right to you?Any Help please...Buzz
