Started up the bike today (oilcooled 1100) after it has been sitting for a while, started off running on 3 then seemed to pick up but then started to constantly backfire. What the fuck is going wrong?

Shitty plug? Fuel? Did it it in the rain at all? Did you take it for a fang and blow the spiders out of the carbs? Whats goin on? Dont ask me. When are we going for a ride?

its a gixxer, its probably just some of the awesomeness trying to escape..

Put a fresh tank of juice in it and see what happens
