    I hope I am posting in the right place. On a couple of occasions my street cup has made a sound almost like a piston slap when blipping the throttle when slowing down for a roundabout.

    Friends have advised that I use a higher octane fuel and also that the ecu will adapt to my style of riding (whatever that means)!

    I’m not overly concerned as the bike engine is a dream but I am curious as to why the bike does this, hopefully all is well.

    Thank you in advance for any advice given.

    Like all the new Bonnys, your bike has a 270° crankshaft and as a result can sometimes make a slightly odd noise as you blip throttle with the clutch in.

    That’s good to know, part of the bikes character. Thank you for your replies.
