It is amazing what a little money and an afternoon of wrenching can do.

Biltwell Frisco bars (might change them again because I am not impressed with the angle of my hands while riding)

Spit, polish, and a little bit of blood was spilled.

I want to change it into a scout or try the recently updated cobra 2into1. Im having troubles getting this setup tuned properly with fp3. Decel popping is annoying.

Decel popping does Not damage your engine, nor is it indicative of a bad tune...it is simply unburnt fuel that is burning in the exhaust tract after exiting the engine.

Decel popping occurs when one of two things are present.

1. The bike is so lean the exhaust is superheated and is burning the unburnt fuel that is in the pipes (there is always some unburnt fuel in the pipes no matter how lean). This is very rare.

2. The AFR IN THE pipes is just right to burn the unburnt fuel. This is quite a common occurrence when free flowing pipes are installed (whether or not a free flow A/C is installed). It can also occur if there is an exhaust leak that is introducing extra air into the exhaust tract.

It is always a good idea to check for leaks.

Also, check for intake leaks at the air cleaner and at the intake manifold/heads.

Another way to change the AFR IN THE Pipes is to install Thunder Torque Inserts.


....It is absolutely possible for a tuner and someone who knows how to use it to tune the decel pop out...although, with V&H and a few other pipes it is definitely more of a challenge. Your FP3 has a Icon for increasing/decreasing decel pop. It looks like a firecracker.

HOWEVER, the methods used to tune the decel pop out of very open pipes are almost always at the sacrifice of performance and/or MPG.

An open pipe with the best performance tune is almost always going to have decel pop. To get rid of it the tune is changed from best performance to best performance possible with no decel pop.

Since you already have decel pop, give some TTI's a try. They will increase your low and mid range power, and will eliminate/decrease your decel pop.
