| Hi! My 2009 WR250X (with 11.000 km) exhaust became much more louder.....it seems have the "normal" noise when it's cold, but it's really louder after a twenty minute ride (when it's hot). Other symptons are "single SOFT popping" on deceleration..........my Yamaha dealer saId it's not a real problem (he said I have the noise of an aftermarket exhaust, without paying for )..... Anyone had got a similar experience? Many thanks from Italy..... Pierluigi P.S. I hope my English is not so bad..... | |

| I'm sure your English is about a million times better than my Italian. Is your X 100% stock? Nothing changed on it? Everything is as it came from Yamaha? Also, are you the original owner? Did you buy it brand new from dealer with almost zero miles on it? My bike tends to "pop" a bit on deceleration when the air/fuel mixture is a little richer than it should be. (my bike isn't stock anymore)On a stock bike the AIS system is supposed to help cure that, but you're also on a European model with an O2 sensor in the pipe.... _________________ 2008 WR250X Gearing: 13t - 48t Power Commander 5 / PC-V Airbox Door Removed - Flapper glued - AIS removed FmF Q4 Bridgestone Battlax BT-003rs

| My bike is totally stock......I'm not the first owner, but I bought it about a year ago and the "problem" was born" about a month ago..... By the way.....the real problem is not the "popping".....but the loud exhaust "voice".. | |

| Since you're NOT the first owner of the bike, are you sure the previous owner didn't alter the stock exhaust system somehow?
Is all the AIS stuff still attached to bike? _________________ 2008 WR250X Gearing: 13t - 48t Power Commander 5 / PC-V Airbox Door Removed - Flapper glued - AIS removed FmF Q4 Bridgestone Battlax BT-003rs

| .....for about 10 month the bike was ok......now I realize the exhaust sound is really louder (and there are some popping on deceleration)......so something happened meanwhile.... I could control if the AIS stuff is still attached......but....where is the AIS stuff....and where should be attached? | |

| AIS = Look right next to where exhaust pipe exits cylinder head on shifter side of the bike. _________________ 2008 WR250X Gearing: 13t - 48t Power Commander 5 / PC-V Airbox Door Removed - Flapper glued - AIS removed FmF Q4 Bridgestone Battlax BT-003rs

| There is a joint between the stock muffler and the pipe coming from the head. On the muffler pipe there is a bolt that you tighten down to attach the muffler to the exhaust pipe from the head. There should also be some metal fiber type material that is used in the muffler pipe to seal that connection.
I would check to make sure the material is there and that the bolt is tight.

Great idea. As things heat and expand the joint could loosen and allow more noise. _________________ 2008 WR250X Gearing: 13t - 48t Power Commander 5 / PC-V Airbox Door Removed - Flapper glued - AIS removed FmF Q4 Bridgestone Battlax BT-003rs

| Could it be a problem with that AIS system, like a vacuum leak or a clogged hose? Could also be that the catalytic converter in the pipe is degraded or something. I have not heard of this before, but I think most people have an aftermarket exhaust pipe. | |

| Popping on decel is usually a leak or loose connection at the head to pipe or where the header pipe is attached to the muffler pipe, had this before and just tightened all connections and it was good, if there is a gasket between the header pipe and the head it could be blown and allowing air in, cheer`s | |
