fouled out plugswell i am to the end of the fouling out plug concern. i cleaned carb again, found slow jet plugged, readjusted floats to 26.5 from the lip of the carb. installed 2 new plugs gapped them to .28 exactly. made sure air filter was cleaned. come to find choke was on the whole time, it has been a few years in restoration and the choke lever was up and not down. every time lever was down engine would die out immediately, i think cause the jets were plugged and the float measurement was way off. i was fouling plugs within 5 min. yesterday i rode in the sunset for over and hour and plugs were a nice color tan, like gold to me. thanks for all of your input. i just took these pictures today for your enjoyment.
runs greatAll is well, finally got out for a couple hour ride the other day. Plugs still burning tan in color. Runs great on the highway at about 70mph with the steering knob tight.
