Brian, I am so sorry I missed your post!
MY BIKE NOW RUNS LIKE A RAPED APE and all is well in my confusing little world...LOL  |
No problem b_r
Thanks for the update, it's good info to look back on.
I still have some work to do on mine but for now it's not too bad. I think something has changed since i bought the bike as i don't remember it having this dead spot when i first bought it. It just seemed to appear. In fact it could be something as simple as the plugs as i haven't changed them yet.
Glad you got your bike sorted.

Why is that EC? Do they foul or just no difference in performance?
I wouldn't have bought irridium plugs anyway unless they came standard. I would just use the same as what is in it now.. _________________ '99 DB4 #104, '96 SB6 #1165, '94 DB2 J #652, '99 DB4 #088, '08 VTX1800, '93 ZXR750R M1, '95 ZXR750, '95 ZXR750 Race Bike, '94 CBR400rr NC29 Race Bike, '94 CB250, '49 BSA C10 250, '61 BSA A10 650, '89 ZXR750, '91 Ducati 851 |

They foul quickly. If the bike doesn't start kinda first time every time then they just don't work, although they'll still spark. _________________ Don't read everything you believe |

Yes, if they get the slightest bit "wet" the bike won't start!
Do you have any suggestions for substitutes????

Again, sorry for the delay, my wife has me doing remodel work on the HOUSE....can you imagine the HORROR!!! LOL I think my downstairs toilet is flooding the upstairs.....lOL
I was wondering if you have a manufacturer and model # on the plugs you prefer in the "Suzie 1100" engine.....Thanks EC.
