Title: am i running lean or is this ok?
Post by: heatherg11 on August 02, 2007, 06:07:47 PM
Just wondering by this pic of my spark plug does it look ok. I checked it with the spark plug page on pablo's site...it says too hot or lean but ok....but really what does this tell me??  I have a cobra F1S exhaust...and have not rejetted.  please tell me what you think.  I haven't had any problems with anything else with the bike....just felt like pulling the plugs and just making sure.

Pic from top will be better, but that's fairly rich, not overly so.
Cool.

I would only worry about that if it gets crusty with soot or greasy. It looks a little rich but well within "normal" parameters so long as nothing drastic happens by way of consumption or smoky exhaust I would leave well alone, just check now and again like we all should be doing.
