Hi, im new to the forums, and i'm sorry if this topic has been covered many times before.
I just bought my bike, its a 2005 s40, and it's got 10900 miles on it. Generally, the bike runs very well.I have had 2 instances, once in a parking lot, once about 30 minutes later at an intersection, where the bike did not seem to want to click down to first. the other gears seem to shift just fine. does anyone else have that problem?
as for the backfire, I am aware that these engines run far too lean for the EPA requirements and all. and I found a very good article, which i will post as a reply to my own post, since I could not post it here on my first post.
Other than the solution offered there, does anyone else have a solution to the backfiring, and does it actually harm the bike in anyway, or is it just annoying? it may be worth mentioning that the bike had aftermarket jardine pipes on it when i bought it.
thanks Travis
