RE: Help Back fire
Go to the Dealer NOW, don't take no for an answer. Something is WRONG.
Sounds like it could be an intake or exhaust leak. OR way out of tune. Rich/lean.
NO stock Harley should back fire if you let off the throttle and "NOT blip her

RE: Help Back fire
I agree with Nevar on this one. It needs to be fixed immediately especially if you just bought her. The bike should not backfire right off the showroom floor. Even if you don't have a stage 1 upgrade, it should still not backfire like that. If it's backfiring, Im willing to bet you're not even getting the performance on accel as you should be. Good luck...
