Engine Noise

gadget · 08-31-2008, 07:00 PM

I have 2007 Nomad 1600. I have managed to put about 8500 miles since October of last year. I have no modifications done to the bike at all. Every once in a while the bike sounds like it back fires. It will only do it once when I first start it then it runs fine. Then when I am riding the bike especially when I push it the bike is noisy. I do not know if I would call it a ping or not. The bike has been to the shop and said there is no problem. It just does not sound good. Maybe this is normal. Is this just part of normal engine noise or what? I use gasoline from Shell or Mobile and I always use premium. I would make a lousy mechanic so I refer to those with more experience. Hope someone can help.

Thanks
