^^^^see i DO need a new header pipe^^^^^^

Check the header pipe were it attachs to the motor it might be leaking there and that is a very common cause of backfireing. They most likely took the header pipe off to get at the stator.

Just like a woman..... Ya had to find a time/temp sign that matches your scoot. It's nice to be color coordinated (just jokin)

Seriously though I agree with Alley. When I put on my exhaust last time I forgot the gasket and left it a bit loose so, it would backfire.

Oh yeah, Check the valves while your at it ;D

[terrilee]

well tried to it was tight
but still backfires
when doing a RAPID deceleration
