Pops and Spits and MY bike.

My beloved Honda Shadow-aero is still having problem. Earlier I posted about the problems that the motorcycle was having. It is clearly experiencing a problem in the idle or low speed jet. When the throttle is closed the engine pops and spits from the exhaust pipe. When coasting the popping gets worse. Then when rolling down a hill (which are plentiful in the NorthEast Ohio area) the popping and spitting are much worse.

In an act of desperation I attempted to use a fairly strong treatment of Sea Foam. Unfortunately the results were not very good. It seems that matters got better, but the problem never went away.

I have no choice, I am going to have to have somebody take the carbs apart. Most would probably not be too concerned about this, but this is MY bike. My bike is My bike, I have had this bike since new, I have made the bike all my own. I have labored to take good care of the machine. It only has one seat, 98% of the miles on the bike are with my butt in the seat, so the bike is truly MY bike. This causes a problem for me regarding letting others touch MY bike, let alone place a wrench on it. Fear of scratches or general disrespect to the bike are always weighing on my mind. The search will be long and hard. The time frame is short, because I really need to have this bike available for use. The Gold wing is nice but the Aero is MY bike
