What does backfiring mean on a Harley Davidson?
Real backfiring means the engine is not properly timed and the fuel/air mix is getting a spark and ignition at the wrong time (when the intake valve is open). Real backfiring is actually the bike “spitting up” in a sense, backwards through the carburetor or intake. So, the popping you are hearing is not back-firing.
