Excess fuel in exhaust?

My last one did this too if I'd been ragging it a bit

mine does this if i turn it off too soon after thrashing it, leave it a min or two on idle to cool down then turn it off.

Mine did this on mfi, really quite loud too if i'd been caning it lol! Now on efi does't do it at all, overfuelling is the cause i would say.
