Not really a problem and realize probably the y-piece that's fitted,  but when I am filtering traffic on the flat or down a hill, low revs, throttle closed, the bike give the occasional massive back fire.

I absolutely crap myself as it iis usually a single bang, remarkably similar to a gunshot. I pity the poor car I am passing, especially if his window is open >:D

But my poor heart :biggrin:

I've taken to blipping the throttle when coasting to reduce my stress.

any comments? Don't really think it's worth messing with fueling and booster plugs etc
