Default 2012 RXV backfires thru carb

Hello everyone. I have a 2012 RXV that has a lot of slack in accelerator cable and hesitates when you push down on accelerator pedal and then backfires thru carb. I replaced the accelerator cable with a new one but also has to much slack and is adjusted all the way out to end of adjustment. The backfire occurs when it is cold or warmed up. It will eventually accelerate but it kind of stutters and sputters and then backfires then it takes off and runs about normal.

Here is a pretty good video on backfiring and adjustments:

Installed new carburetor and runs much better but no adjustment for throttle cable. and now the governor is not working. When you take off it just keeps going faster and faster

Adjusted throttle cable and governor according to service manual but no change. Cable still has to much slack in it. Checked another rxv and it has less slack than the one I'm working on. I have come to the conclusion someone has messed with it to go faster and now they have messed up the governor because it is not working correctly. Got a signed release of liability from owner and returned it to him because he doesn't want to spend the money on repair. Thanks to everyone that offered help. But out my hands now. Just sorry I couldn't fix it correctly.
