Back fore

Zwayback,

I don't have any idea how much back fireing you have but if it is only minor poping it may be expected. With the long drag pipes. I get a little but very little on my stock liner. I'm sure you know it is unburned gas being ignited in the hot exhaust. They run a little rich I think. I have had my Stratoliner since spring of 06. Have a little over 40 k miles trouble free.
