I'm back firing pretty bad. It's to the point when I shift gears I can hear a quiet pop. I rely on engine breaking...That's how I was taught to ride sooooooo I can get a solid 4-5 popping noises when I down shift. So the only way of fixing this problem is to buy a power commander and get my bike re-mapped right?

If I decided to not do anything about this back firing what's the problmes that it could cause to the engine?

I'm on an 06 Kawi 636 21,000+ miles.

 

0_0 21k ? damn

i honestly love the backfiring
i was at work picking up some carts and i heard a bike go by and it had a loud ass exhaust and it poped every time he shifted, i thought it was pretty cool

but yea ur most likely running rich, get a power commander,
do u have full exhaust ?

 

Actually there is a vacum hose that you can plug to get rid of that. That is what the kawi tech told me.

 

oh yea my bike does it. Espeacially when you are coming of a high rev and hit the gas????

 

yep... check the kawi boards, .99$ vac cap and my 10 is way better, but after removing my cat and shit I need a pc3 to get rid of all of it.


but it only does it in one spot, on decel, so I drive around it lol.


oh and if you have a leak in your exhaust, it will make the pop worse.

 

hey cammo dont do the kawiforums thing buy the dan kyle block off plates there 28 bucks man worth every penny it will stop the backfiring but still recommend a pc3 its worth the money to get if and when u go to do that lmk ill give u a hand if need be it takes no less then an hour to do...

 

Its your PAIR system or atleast thats what its called on a honda. It injects fresh air into the exhaust stream to make it a much cleaner burn. Just emisions bull shit, it wont hurt anything but you can eleminate it and take some weight off the bike.

 

buy a cruiser!

 

whats wrong with backfiring? personally, i think its cool as long as its not affecting anything.

 

yeah, its not all that bad mine dose it too everynow and then, just need a PC if you want it to run all nice.


Haha and cammo +1 on the miles for an 06!
