Hi guys , just joined the forum , backfire problem
Hi guys , new in here , ride is 2001 Storm . I have a problem on start up , happens hot but more often cold . Bike cranks over well but doesn't fire , eventually firing and detonating a huge backfire through the exhaust . New air filters ( main and subs ) new plugs , drives me and my neighbours nuts . Any ideas on problem greatly received .

Timing 1 or 2 teeth out.
Valve clearance too tight.
Tell us some more about the bike, mileage, services done, has it had the cam chain tensioners replaced ?

Don’t use choke until it’s running , only a tad of throttle
