Wildcard2 Posted October 9, 2008 Report Posted October 9, 2008 a slight pinging noise isnt really much of a discription. We need a little more to go on. Is it from the front, right side ,left side , exhaust, does it do it at idle or in gear tell us more bud Quote
WeSt CoAsT TrUtH Posted October 9, 2008 Author Report Posted October 9, 2008 seems to be coming from the exhaust and only during idle Quote
Wildcard2 Posted October 9, 2008 Report Posted October 9, 2008 check you r bolts, springs, and fastners Quote
The Quadfather Posted October 16, 2008 Report Posted October 16, 2008 your kick starter is probably loose check it Quote
acfine Posted October 17, 2008 Report Posted October 17, 2008 you have clamps where the headers meet the silencer tubes? Mine did not, and it pinged at idle. Once i put exhaust clamps on, pinging gone...well other than what the exhaust does on it's own. Stock exhaust? Quote

Stock exhaust? right now i'm running some FMF fatty's on it.. i'll check that clamp like u said.. its a very suttle ping. And i checked my kickstart and other bolts and fasteners and everything seems tight.. haha i hope its not all in my head Quote

And i checked my kickstart and other bolts and fasteners and everything seems tight.. haha i hope its not all in my head Sounds exactly like what I had. I run Fatty's, and the dude I bought it from did not put any clamps on where the headers and silencer pipes met. Sure enough, as soon as I put the clamps on, the "un-usual" ping went away. Good luck, Anthony Quote
