The good news is that I think I cured a problem with my bike by
trying someones (Patric?) advice. By raising the slide needle, the plug color and
the performance seemed much better. Then the bad. When I went to the Zone to
get a set of those Bosh plugs to try out the "no-foul in a bucket of oil"
warranty. When I came out, the bike was dead. A small click in the starter when I
hit the button. Try rolling it off..nada. Try a jump ...nada. I have spark, but
the bike will not hit a lick, even with starting fluid. The ugly,I am afraid
I may have jumped time, But it won't even pop. I will investigate further as I
can Greg '74 LAPD (I think)
