"Popping" noise when starting

jsmeltser · 09-18-2008, 09:34 AM

I have a 2008 GZ250 that I've put 3500 miles on this summer. Lately, when I start from a cold start there is a loud popping noise that seems to come from the front of the bike and then when I give the bike gas I get the same sound until it warms up. Sorry I can't describe this any better. I'm going to take the bike in for the 3000 mile service but my local dealer is a complete douche so I'm not terribly confident with them. Any ideas?
