Hello all, I suppose I should start of by introducing myself my name is Jason I'm 19 and live in the south-west of Cornwall, I've been reading most of your topics and going through them and I must say I know more about my bike now than I had first thought.
I have passed my A2 bike test (33 bhp restriction ![]() But after a LOT of money and time off the road I've got her back in running order. I do have a couple of perks since having it back from the garage is it normal for this particullar SV model to have a poping sound when idel or at low revs? And also has anyone ever experianced engine cutting when in neautral or on tickover? I look forward to partisipating and getting to know you all on this community. -Jason |

Hi, welcome.
Popping at tickover, a SLIGHT popping is normal if you have a race exhaust on it, however the cutting out is not. That suggests either your idle speed is too low, or if the popping is severe then an air leak somewhere.
