NEVER SATISFIED Posted June 2, 2005 Report Posted June 2, 2005 (edited) anyone know how this occurs... plug has been in the bike for about 3 rides.. 4 hours each ride.. went to the dunes this past weekend and rode it one day and pulled my plugs just to check them and noticed on the electrode that there seemed to be a blister type circle at the top on the electrode(well the white partof the plug). my plugs are light chocolate brown and it ran like fine.. this a bad thing?

NEVER SATISFIED Posted June 3, 2005 Author Report Posted June 3, 2005 Better back off that timing!!!! 377184[/snapback] well i was ruinnin stock plugs.. im going to switch to hotter running plugs and see what happens.. right now im at +6 and i was haulin my gf around the dunes with me so maybe bike was pullin too much weight ... lol Quote
sredish Posted June 3, 2005 Report Posted June 3, 2005 how much advanced are you? I've ran up to +8 with no probs. You sure you weren't a little lean with the extra weight, in the dunes, making the motor work extra hard? Quote

I NEEEEED BIGGER CARBS!!!!!! im already at a damn 460 main with 27.5 pilot. plugs looked good when i rode it and then when she got on i think that did it.. plus the fact that i was runnin stock type plugs all weekend and before i had ran HP plugs with a higher heat level.

You can get some really inexpensively from UPP, or step up to a billet setup from Trinity or Boss. $150 is fine. Still want that swinger , for the price I gave you before, not the one listed....

Here's some Pro Designs for $75. They should work also. You can get boots to work for the stockers, but the stockers are too necked down to get the full benefit of the bigger carbs. The alum. intakes are the cat's meow!! Quote
NEVER SATISFIED Posted June 3, 2005 Author Report Posted June 3, 2005 no throttle cables? chit... i found some on e bay 34MM's with throttle cables for 125.00.. this whole setup maybe more then i wanna spend.. Quote
