I have a 81 Goldwing Interstate that is poping thru the exhaust. The poping is barely noticeable, but it's there.
Prior to driving my new GW for the first time after buying it, I had the timing belts changed, valves adjusted & the carbs removed & cleaned.Driving it for the first timeafter that I had a problem with the bike all of the sudden slowing down when the throttle lock was on & if you gave it more gas it just bogged down. I then cleaned the gas tank & replaced the gas filter.
Now it runs a lot better & does not slow down under steady throttle. itaccelerates good, but I can hear a shallow popping thru the exhaust at steady speed. Also there is gasoline stains under the right bank of carbs.
Does this sound like a carb problem or something else?
Thanks Don
