I also agree, check your plug, warm up your bike and wrap it out in 4th or 5th gear and hold it wide open few a few seconds. Kill it, pull in the clutch and take out the plug. Black is too rich, white or real light gray is too lean. I have stock bore with high comp. piston and a cam and I'm running a 162 main, 4th needle pos., 40 pilot. mess with the fuel/air screw a bit too
