Humm... could be too large of Main Jets the previous owner did "Modify" the thing.... I haven't done a Plug color check sense I got it running so that might be a good idea....
.....oh... darn I just thought of what it might be.... oil level is high too...
and I know the pet cock leaks and when it is on it's side stand it leans a LONG way over now with the shortened side stand... i bet it's leaking gas into the bottom end.... I better check into that before I ride it again....
.... I hate vacuum petcocks might be time to buy one I can actually turn on and off !...( and change the oil again!)
.... last color check on the plugs looked great, I couldn't ask for anything better
which means it's not burning all that gas it's just dripping into the bottom end
... wonder why I haven't had a hydro lock then??? slow leak perhaps ?
.... Darn you Jim !!! now I gott'a work on the Ninja again ! HAHAHAHA
but thank you anyway !!!! you may well have saved me a bunch of trouble coming up in the future !
....
