  • Holding At 9-10 Grand I Get Backfire And Flames

    Need help please! Its nice and I want to ride!

    I put my 1989 Katana 600 Back together and now its running good at idle and all the way up to about 9 grand but if I hold the throttle at 9 grand or above it backfires and shoots a little flame out of the exhaust.

    Could it be bad plugs?

    A float stuck open?

    Any idea's would be greatly aperciated.

    I live in Washington and my nice days are limited! HELP~

    id go with carbs are not synched correctly.

    also did you do an exhaust upgrade? if so you will needs ajetkit

    also valve seating/timing. timing is in carb synching and in the internal chain, how taught the chain is

      I pulled out my plugs and they are BLACK!! Would that cause it? I only have a slip on. Not a full exhaust.

          aahhh its too rich, and causing backfire......too much gas in the A/F mix. also make shure your carbs are clean.
