i have a 1987 gl1200 interstate, it runs rough and backfires through the carbs when it's cold and then smooths out when it warms up. The most puzzling to me is it starts running rough again after about 30 or so miles down into the ride. i have also noticed that there is a pinging noise in the left side that has been seeming to get a little louder. i have changed sparkplugs and ran sea foam through it and that seemed to help a little but after running the treatment is when i noticed the noise. i am fairly new to this, so if anyone has any syggestions i would appreciate it. thanks.
