SuzukiSavage.com - Popping on Decel

Jimworx Junior Member Offline I love YaBB 1G - SP1! Posts: 72	Popping on Decel 07/10/09 at 12:58:12 I know this was posted before but I can't seem to find it. I have a '96 with K&N cone filter and harley pipe. On decels, it seems to pop like crazy. If I slowly ease off on the throttle, its not as bad. Does anyone know what it might be?

Had this issue, and I reduced the number of disks in the supertrapp. Dam it won't pop anymore. :'(

I've got the same problem after installing Jardine pipes and a K&N air filter.

To solve this problem i'm planning on rejetting the carb when i've got the time, so we'll see how things go.

In the meantime, have fun with it. Right before you're going to shut off your bike, roll hard on the throttle and hit the kill switch right when you reach peak rpms. Most of the time (oddly not all the time) you'll get an extremely satisfying BANG!

I don't recommend this as a permanent solution, but it works fine while you're waiting for your jets or new carb.
