Re: [ST] Backfiring



My Sprint ST does the occasional backfire when haulin on twisty mountain
roads.  A bit embarrassing but does not occur enough to worry about.  Does
sound like it may run a bit rich and I am thinking about K & N filter so no
retunes until at least then.  I do not know which tune was put on my bike.
