^ I like this idea

I inspected the valve clearances and found them still in spec, actually they haven't moved a single .001" since I adjusted them at 12k miles and I'm currently at 41k miles

. I changed out my Iridium spark plugs after 29k for some new Iridium plugs(same). The arc had wore a crater in the tip making the gap .042" which is just out of the spec which Kawi calls for .030-.040". This would explain why my bike which has never needed to use the choke at first start up started acting a little cold blooded these last 6k miles. With the new plugs installed and carb sync recheck(also no adjustment needed) the bike fired right up this morning and I rolled out with no need to warm it up.

Mounted the Mtb to the back and rode it to work so I'm ready to go for tonight's Mtb races.
