I am a new rider and have a 1988 Katana which is difficult to start. I have checked the plugs and they were covered in a dark brown liquid (presumably gas). I cleaned them up and the bike started very nicely...the first time. The tank is full of new fuel. It has backfired (literally fire out the pipe) a couple if times during the difficult starts
Recently the bike has started knocking intermittently quite noticeably when trying to start it. (Not the alternator solenoid clicking) Once it starts it runs without the knocking.
Any advice would be appreciated before I take it into the mechanic.
