As some of you know, I have suffered through a backfire issue dating back to the last time the dealer worked on my throttle bodies. While on a trip to Mayberry days in Mt. Airy, NC, Speedy discovered the issue was the forward throttle body was not set inside the rubber adapter correctly. The rubber is now mis-shaped but still useable (until I get the dealer to replace their goof up) and once the throttle body was pushed in as far as we could get it, the backfire issue is fixed.

Just after the fix, I received a note from a Triumph mechanic in Chattanooga, TN who heard of my problem and told me to check there first as he sees it a lot on our Rockets, calls it a common issue.

That is all...
