      possibly road debris? perhaps you picked something up without realizing and it kicked its self out... theres probably about a million things it could be... thats just my guess.

            are you near a car when you cross the expansion joints in the over pass?
            It could be the car tires crossing the expansion joints that you hear
            I get it all the time on a fly over bridge

              I was thinking expansion joints as well.
              90% of motorcycle forum members do not have a service manual for their bike.

                  What kind of pop sound was it? Metal or Gas?

                    I used to live in a condo that faced the highway... I had to listen to cars and trucks drive over the expansion joints all day and night... it's loud.
