I went for a quick ride with a cloth tied around the open end of the chimney, and for the first time ever, I was getting the backfiring everyone is talking about! When I let off the throttle, I would get several loud pops, and occasionally when shifting gears. With the kleen air system on there and the full yoshi exhaust, I never once had it backfire like that. Do people really ride around town with it sounding like that? It was horrible!
Anyhow, the whole thing is back on, and it looks like it's there to stay. For whatever reason, someone must have worked hard to dial it in with that system in place, so I'm going to leave it alone. The bike runs noticeably better, and there is without a doubt more power in the lower rev range with it in place. now I just have to put my poor bike back together for the fourth time!
Cheers,
Owen
