Jereme6655 Posted September 7, 2012 Report Posted September 7, 2012 warm bike up......pull old plugs out and pu tin NEW plugs. then fire it up nd hammer it from 1-6th. when you hit the top of 6th pull clutch like stated earlier and kill engine and coast to stop. remove those plugs and put original plugs back in it and ride back to your shop. then cut the threads off of the test plugs.

hoppedupandcutdown Posted September 18, 2012 Report Posted September 18, 2012 you don't HAVE to change jetting or do a plug chop from just removing a boost bottle. Quote
Two Flags Posted October 26, 2012 Report Posted October 26, 2012 plug chops are a waste of time. read about tuning. plug chops were a sales pitch. Quote
