Weird noise on startup
Hi guys i had a weird sound today when i restarted my bike after riding.Heres how it happened i have had a problem adjusting my idle just right its an 06 so its carbed.I get it adjusted to where i like it stays that way for a couple days then it speeds up on its own only when motor is up to temp.So i go riding today come home and its idling high so i shut it off to back the idle out just a little bit when i try to restart it makes a loud high pitched pinging sound and a big puff of black smoke out of pipes.Shut it off it did it again then been fine ever since any ideas on what this could be???

Hi again guys this bike only seems to do this after its warmed up or ridden for awile.It did again today i shut it off after riding awile hit the starter button and it sounds like a hammer hitting metal or an arcing sound.But it starts and runs great but im afraid im hurting it by starting it when warm.
