Popping

[6R Blackout]

O.K. I have the exhaust and juice box installed and I am getting the popping when I release the throttle, I e-mailed TB and they said I should have no problem, I know I have read on here about block off plates. I read that the block off plates will take care of the popping, now my question is does anyone have a full detailed and illustrated thread on exactly how to install the block off plates. I still have to order them so if anyone has some advice on which ones to get and how to install or just lpain what to do with the popping. I would appreciate any help I can get on this to solve the popping. It really sounds bad when it pops, loud too. Thanks to all for any advice.:banghead::surrender::Im With Stupid:

Search for Graves there's a write up by Vitrox. It's the same no matter what brand of plates you use. In the mean time, you can get some heavy duty plastic and pop the gas tank up and remove the hose at the front of the airbox and cover the nub with the plastic and put the hose back on leaving the plastic showing on all sides..

I have read the different threads on block off plates as well and want to know is there a noticeable difference with the juice box and exhaust vs the juice box n exhaust and block off plates. People report still getting popping after installing them and I want to know is there a difference between what I wrote up as a comparison.

Is it really that bad? After my TBR exhaust, I did also find that there was a lot of popping. Didn't bother me that much. Added the JB, and found most of the popping went away. The only pops it'll do now is if I abruptly chop the throttle from anywhere north of 4K. If just rolling off, no issue.

Nevertheless, for me anyway, I just don't think the added expense and time of another mod (the block off plates) is really worth the $. YMMV...

Here is a good write up that Vitrox did. Lots of good pics!

You know now that you say that, I do get the big pop when I abruptly let off the throttle, if I just roll off easy it really has no big issue with popping. Your right north of the 4K border, and a quick let off and wow POP, an easy let off roll out of the throttle and it doesn't pop to bad or if at all. Thank you for bringing that to my attention.:thumbup::steve:
You may have solved my problem!

The only real reason I'm worried about the popping (which has been greatly decreased since I put the PCV on but still there) is I've had cops look at me when I'm rolling to a stop and it makes me nervous. I've been using less engine braking riding around town because of it. It seems to get their attention more than the increased volume. I actually do like the sound of it. Sounds more like a race bike. However before I blocked the fresh air dump into the air box (kind of a quick fix instead of getting the block off plates) I was back firing foot long flames out the exhaust. That was a problem.
