Yes it does. Reminded me of my Kawasaki racebike that had Mikuni flat slides and velocity stacks.
I thought of K+N filters for my R100, but I always found CV carbs very difficult to deal with when intake air was dramatically increased. The flat slides I was able to dial in quite easily. They were spot on.
Those Mikunis were the bees knees. Bike pulled like a V8 out of corners, then screamed up to the rev limiter. The only thing that crippled the bike was the rider.

No, I don't think having the aircleaner off could cause your exteme lean condition.
