[net.cycle] Popping sound from exhaust at idle

lbj@rruxo.UUCP (L Johnson) (07/15/85)

I own a 1979 Yamaha XS400. A couple of months ago the popping started.
It sounds like a car backfiring. Now it idles rough and has no power.
Does anyone have any idea whats wrong? The bike has about 9K miles on it.
