I'd take them out if it makes you feel better. You can leave them in like Tommy said. If you're not cranking on the throttle it shouldn't matter. Try checking the spark plugs. Good luck! Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android On Mon, Jan 28, 2019 at 8:11 PM, Holger Selover-Stephan wrote: > Peop

Unless you just want to, don’t worry about the washer mod. I put one in, noticed no difference so took it off. If you just wanna play, and it IS easy, remove them. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" group. To unsubscrib

New needles are available. When you start the bike from cold you can check all 4 exhaust pipes to see if they heat up evenly. That should give you some idea how or if the cylinders are firing On Mon, Jan 28, 2019, 10:28 AM Arthur R (Bob) Sheller wrote: > I guess you could try bending the bulb f

That sounds like a pretty good deal! Happy to help any way possible. Maybe you could trim the fins if it wouldn't cause the bulb to overheat? Being noticed in traffic is a must. People usually put washers under the needle if they use a K&N air filter or pod filters. Do you know if that's the cas
