HELP PLEASE!! 2 Years ago   I just did 200 miles, me, 150 lbs, hypercharger(ugh), cobras, Batwing, hard bags, and trunk in no wind at 65 and got 43 even. I'm running rich but have just had too many other things going on to tear into the jetting. Obviously, it is on my to do list. Best 4 hours of riding I've had in a long time, priceless!   Logged     I\'ll be judged by 12 before I\'m carried by 6!   The administrator has disabled public write access. #279560 BTM.

HELP PLEASE!! 2 Years ago   425 above sea level and as we remember the richer on the pilot and main jetting the more chance for SVS I could probably run a stock plug because as we run it hard enough anyway hince as not to load up un burnt fuel also remember when your bike was new, Bore 3 and 4 had a warmer plug brand "Densco" to help burning off extra fuel.   Logged     Last Edit: 2010/05/05 12:07 By BTM.
