Rick,
Great to hear that the bike is running well now. Whatever works eh? :-) Let
me know if those plugs hold up.
The little burps (I call them sneezes) seem to be normal on these bikes for
some reason. I remember when I rode to the National last year...the bike ran
great the whole way. Just one time.....somewhere in New York I think...the
bike sneezed.....never did it again. Weird. Just part of the personality I
suppose.
Let me know how it goes. Regards....Ian

Hey Ian, I got the part number outta Harpers on what they list for the V700. I have the Autolites in now, and the bike is running like a dream, just curious for how long, the NGK's worked great but burned out really quick as in less than 10 |
| I have almost 20 on these Autolites now, I did re-adjust the carbs towards lean, only thing is I am running in the richest position for the needle on the slide, the bike runs too lean in any other position. I think because the exhaust is pretty much open and I am using the ini filter. Matter of fact I just got back from a short ride the bike is running beutiful. I am still getting a burp up through the carb every once in awhile, seems you said |
| is pretty normal. Well gotta run, going helmet shopping. According to another email on the part numbers the BP6ES is a little hotter plug than what I am running. that could be why I keep fouling the NGK as they were a colder plug. Rick 67 V700 |
