Backfire after rebuild
« on: May 30, 2019, 05:48:21 PM »
Just got the bike running again after new head gasket and some carb work

Getting a backfire about every 30 seconds from 1 cylinder

Not balanced carbs yet but just wondered if anyone had any ideas as to likely causes

Thanks all

If you bench synced the carbs before re fitting, i would look for an air leak first.
