What Causes the Popping Sound from the Motorcycle Exhaust Pipe After Parking?
1 Answers
If there is a popping sound from the exhaust pipe after turning off the engine, it is normal. The exhaust pipe becomes very hot during engine operation and expands due to heat. When the engine is turned off, the temperature drops, causing the pipe to contract and produce such sounds. If the motorcycle is new with minimal carbon buildup inside the exhaust pipe, the sound may be more crisp and noticeable, which is a normal phenomenon.
