Hmmm... Don't Do That? Seriously, don't coast through turns - the bike
really wants a bit of weight transfer to the back to stabalize it.
Do you give a bit of throttle as you let the clutch out? Try that. The
Sprint (like most motorcycles these days) is set up awfully lean at
idle, so it doesn't always run smooth there. Neither does my car, for
that matter. So I guess, short answer is "They all do that, sir." Unless
it's really bad, like you're afraid it's going to explode.
