i know i dont have a 450 but i have a jet kit, not even sure what the guy jetted my bike to when he rebuilt the top end of my motor, but it is jetted and has an hmf with an exhaust snorkel and a intake snorkel, and even my bike coughes at high speeds, it is very rare that it does it now that the motor has been rebuilt when it does cough im like WTF is wrong with it now, but all in all i think it may have something to do with the wind or the weather somewhat, if it does cough at high speeds, does it cough at high rpms also? i know before my engine work was done it would cough out at high rpms and i had a 90 degree elbow pointing backwards and i went and got a 180 degree elbow and stuck it on and no more coughing out, you may try that just to see if that makes it stop at all or become less frequent

yea just get a cap for the end of ur snorkel, i cant tell you how grate they are and easy to remember to use it, when i travel i run the gas out the line and put the cap on the snorkel and turn the gas off and have had no probs so far, a friend doesnt run the gas out or turn it off at all and we got to the lease one morning at 4am ready to go get nasty and hits airbox was full of gas and i told him to run the gas out and turn it off from now on and he has ever since

u got the ghetto part rite, i dont know where to get one at, im guessing any hardware store that would have pvc stuff but you may need to go to a like plumbers store or something, i needa find another one to put in my exhaust snorkel, cuz when i park my bike in the backyard where i do the pipe sticks out like 6" past where the roof is and i think when it drains off the roof it goes rite for the pipe and maybe thats why when i crank it up sometimes smoke comes out
