    If it hasn't,t done it before, then you would suspect the fuel . Drain it , fresh fuel , and do a similar ride to see .

    Agree with Tim, poor fuel, high heat= pinging

    Yup, gotta agree with the above. I've gotten bp 98 from habibi's friendly servo ang my bike has knocked it's head off, another tank from elsewhere of the same fuel and it's all fine.
    I just ride it like an old fart until I can refill with , hopefully, better fuel. Has your bike been tuned by a proper tuner or done by a downloaded map? You can't beat someone who knows how to tune 'em, the difference is like night and day.
