Early in owning the H2, I did foul a lot of plugs. At some point someone told me if it's doing that, something is wrong, so I started checking things. In my case I found that the float needles were worn and not closing properly, so I fixed that. I have since never once fouled a plug. I normally go several thousand miles before I even look at them now. The stock injector pump averages about a 50:1 mix, getting down around 20:1 at wide open throttle, and approaching 100:1 at low throttle cruise speeds.

If anyone here is going to the Bull City Rumble in Durham on Labor Day weekend, you can see the old gal, and I'll even pull a plug so you can see the brown-tan color if you like.
