Back firing and brakes.

#1 Unread post by Zohw »

My bike keeps back firing whenever i turn it off (im assuming thats the only time back firing accurs...) how do u stop it?

Also when i brake, its pretty squeaky, do i just need to lubricate the brake lines?

i have a 96 suzuki 650 savage, if telling you this helps. :roll:

Sounds like you might need a valve adjustment. Just for giggles, also check to see that there aren't any air leaks before or after the cyl.
