Engine cutting out--AGAIN
Written by pc800dork on 7/28/2010 at 03:14 am

That's weird. I have had the Tee-mod on my bike since shortly after I got it
and don't recall ever really having a backfire except once when I started it. I
noticed no change whatsoever in running the Tee.

Can you describe how the Tee might cause a backfire when downshifting? Just
curious.

you will have to remove your top shelter to get to it. the quick fix that many
have done it to replace the petcock with a Tee. you can get one at you local
auto supply for a couple of bucks. I did that first, but it did cause my bike to
backfire once in a while when i downshifted and i found it to be annoying...
